If only walls could talk. It was 1890's, Amasa Campbell along with his partners John Finch and Patsy Clark were making it big in the Silver Valley investing in the Hecla Mining Company. Amasa and his wife Grace built this home for their family and lived here until they built the Campbell House in Brown's Addition in Spokane. This 4,487 sqft Queen Ann Victorian home is one of the few homes to make it thru the 1910 fire and is also registered on the National Register of Historic Places.
History aside, this 5 bed 3 bath home has a grand master suite that occupies much of the second story and includes a parlor, private rooftop deck, and office. As many homes of this era there is a main staircase and also one in the back of the home with its own entrance that leads to the 3rd floor which could be easily finished to its own apartment or vacation rental.
The charm of this home is something you have to see to appreciate, it is easy to see why it has been well cared for all this time!
