Hope-Bosworth House
|
|
The Hope-Bosworth House is a charming Queen Anne Craftsman style Victorian built in 1904 by early Geyserville pioneer and settler, George M. Bosworth. The house, built entirely of heart redwood, is a "pattern book house." The eclectic style and plans were selected and ordered by the Bosworth's from one of the many pattern books of the day. The house was built with day labor and all the milling for the custom ship lap siding was done on the site under the direction of Mr. Bosworth. During the 1906 earthquake the brick chimneys toppled to the ground and plaster fell from the walls, but the house withstood the quake and the Bosworth's repaired the damage and continued to live in the house until the mid-1960's.
The home, known to the family members as "The Palms", got its name from the many palm trees planted along the street. Only two palm trees now remain and they are over 70 feet high and are a very prominent feature on Geyserville Avenue. The picket fence is now covered with "Roses of Yesteryear" -- varieties that were popular when the house was built in 1904.
All the rooms are a step in the past. The original oak grained woodwork is evident throughout the house, from the large sliding doors in the hallway to the upstairs tower bedroom. Polished fir floors and antique light fixtures enhance the period furnishings completing the comfortable decor. The upstairs bedrooms are inviting wallpapered rooms.
