This building is a National treasure. Thanks to the people who had saved this building from being destroyed. It is so important for children to understand the history and art through building like this. Thank you for the video.

I wish you were showing more of Giraud Foster’s items in the Bellefontaine room. If you have never seen Ventfort Hall, you need to make the trip. it’s a beautiful place

Thanks so much for your comment! We do have the rest of the items in the Bellefontaine collection on display in a small room adjacent to George's bedroom (where the dining table is set up). We recently switched out all of the pieces so we have a completely different setting at the table now! Hope you're able to visit us again soon!

At the end when they show the unrestored part, they should have the music stop suddenly with a record scratch sound effect. Just for comedy effect. Jokes aside, what an incredible house. They did an amazing job with the restoration and I would love to visit someday. I grew up in an old Victorian house built in the 1880’s and my family spent years restoring it. It was a very unique house, owned by the founder of Porter McCleod Tool Co. which made firearms in a local factory, situated in the same town. I found all sorts of things hidden in the house. Old rifle stocks in the basement, a bomb shelter also in the basement, a secret hallway with blueprints for what the original family planned to build on the land (tennis courts, fountain, game room, apple orchard, pool , etc). It never happened due to illness in the family, and the house was eventually neglected. Old houses are very interesting - also, my old house had some ghosts that would show up. We put in a new bathroom where originally there wasn’t one, and I heard the water faucet turn on by itself. Sensed someone was there, heard it turn on, lights in the bathroom were off. I figured it was an old resident that was a little confused with the changes to the rooms. Friends also felt it was haunted, or had ‘special visitors’.

I have been visiting about every other year (live on other side of MA); it's always fun to see what has been restored since the last visit. I wish this video had pointed out the bathrooms' "gas" night lights (one appeared in the wall over the toilet in this video) where the gas was methane from the human waste in the septic system! Just a neat bit of "recycling!"

Thank goodness someone appreciated the home, but why would anyone build something to this extreme!?! I would think being humble and not bring attention to oneself would be the way to go!

In the Gilded Age? You must be joking!
