Inside, cozy candlelit rooms reflect the taste of the 18th century along with colorfully painted walls, woodwork and floors; Queen Ann, Chippendale and Hepplewhite style furniture, and oriental style rugs finish the house.

Kukla, Fran and Ollie Room

If you look very closely you'll see Kukla and Ollie punched in the tin of the fire screen.  It was made by Lynne Weber who grew up in the house with her brother Ted.

This tester bed would have been the most costly piece of furniture in a colonial home, and probably not for the reason you think.  Bed rooms were often used for entertaining a guest for tea.
