The Italianate mansion was built for James Turner Kendall but decades later, the home was used as an inn. The house was built at great expense, totaling over $30,000 at the time.

I lived in an apartment a few years ago. 4 units upstairs, 4 units downstairs. I lived upstairs, and the apartment below me was vacant. I kept hearing footsteps through the apartment, and I knew I shouldn’t have. Nobody was downstairs. I asked someone to come over and listen, just to see if I was crazy.
