Previous reviewers have said great things I don't need to repeat, I just wanted to add to the rave reviews. There are some amazing pieces in this house, including a victrola the owner plays a Sousa march on and a 100-year old Steinway piano we got to play. All the light fixtures are original Thomas Edison/GE pieces, and Frank Lloyd...

Owner guided tour of almost three hours. Countless stories of life in early 1900's. This is a home, not a museum. Personalized touches of relationship with daughters of the original owner. No southern home compares.

This mansion has to be my most favorite of all time...
It is currently owned by a man who has lived in it since the 1980's when the Seelye sisters still were alive. He actually gave us the tour (he still lives there by the way) and told us that he moved in after he bought the place but on...

We began by the owner of the building introducing himself. He lived with the heirs to the mansion for over 10 years and picked their brains until they died at age 91 and older. He has very deep informational stories about everything in the home. He put the home in a foundation so it could be enjoyed for years to...

Had a great experience touring with my family - Terry does an excellent tour, complete with opportunities to interact with the house and learn about the women who made this historic house home.

The house's extravagent features and decor are amazing, but I most loved hearing about Helen and Marion Seeyle. Terry's friendship with the elderly Seeyle ladies and his restoration of their home for the public to enjoy is an interesting story. I'm sure Helen and Marion would be very pleased with the excellent condition of the house and how many people...

Spent a very very enjoyable afternoon with Terry. He made us feel very welcomed and very much at home. The tour and his knowledge of the history of the mansion was outstanding. I would highly recommend a visit.

We got here late but the gentleman let us join in the last tour and even spent a little time afterwords to show us the upstairs. He may have already shown it to the other people. He owns the home and wants to make you feel at home like he does while he's showing you his beautiful home. I didn't...
