Formerly known as the Fleur-de-Lys Bed & Breakfast Inn, the property features eight bedrooms, seven bathrooms, gracious formal entertaining spaces, and two well-appointed culinary kitchens—offering exceptional flexibility for private ownership, income-producing lodging, retreats, wellness uses, or creative event ventures. Beyond its timeless architecture lies a highly specialized current use: a state-of-the-art “super studio,” with all three levels hardwired for real-time, two-way audio and video connectivity.
