Captain Benjamin Freeman Historic Restoration |
The following photo slideshows* depict the historical restoration of the Captain Benjamin Freeman house, originally built in 1835. Improvements like custom shelving were added to the main house as well as restoration to an existing detached carriage house and garage. A new three-car garage with historic detail was also constructed. This entire project is still in progress and new photos will be added. *Slideshows can be advanced or returned to prior slide by clicking the appropriate arrows underneath each show.
