Open House at the Brick House

The Brick House in Shelburne, Vermont was the home of Electra Havermeyer Webb, the founder of the Shelburne Museum. It is open to visitors for tours just a few times a year. Today was one of those days.

The original country home dates back to 1840. Additions and renovations were made over the years. Today it is restored to appear as it did when the family lived there. Each room is like a microcosm of the Shelburne Museum itself, containing parts of the collections. It's a fun place to take photos.

We had toured before, and I've taken many pictures. Today I focused on the archways of this beautiful home.

The first two photos were taken near the front entrance.

This one is of a hallway on the second floor.

Out of each window there is a spectacular view.

Here's Geo taking in the view from an upstairs porch.

Location, location, location!
