Sister Hill

In 2016, we stumbled across this beautiful beast of a home begging to be brought back to life! We had just finished rehabbing our ranch style, fixer upper when this house came into our lives. Without Jeff even seeing the inside, he, my mom, sister and I started in on a new adventure. www.sisterhillinn.com

Sister Hill Inn and Wedding Event Venue

Left empty for years and inhabited by animals, we immediately fell in love with this giant Victorian built in the 1850’s. As a wedding photographer, walking into a space with such beautiful natural light was kind of a dream come true. It felt like ours the second we stepped inside with endless possibilities. Of course, after all of the paperwork was signed, reality set in…this wasn’t only the therapy project we all needed so badly at the time, this was going to be A LOT of work!

For nearly 2 years, we drove the 50 miles on most weekends and many weeknights working any spare minute we could find, painting, scraping and finishing floors. Our boys grew up in construction, almost as their second home. Keeping as much of the original character as we could salvage, we reveled in giving this house life again. And no matter how much work it was, every time we stepped back in there, it was like a breath of fresh air. It just always felt right. So we kept going.

In late 2017, we opened to the public as an Inn and small Event Venue www.sisterhillinn.com . Every weekend, the house is full of guests who get to love it just as much as we do.

Now that almost 5 years have past, it’s time for us to make some updates! Follow along as we refresh this space room by room with unique design and character! www.instagram.com/dearhomeblog

Cheers,

Jamie
