Outside there are multiple places to sneak away and relax with a good book or just enjoy nature, including the front wrap-around porch overlooking the front yard - a signature feature of the Antebellum, Southern-style U.S. homes, the upstairs covered veranda, or the Corsicana brick arbor terrace and gardens accessed just out the back door.
History of the Home: The historic Henriettas House was built in 1909 as a grand Antebellum-styled family home, rich in history and character, style and architecture, with an underlying elegance that is timeless.

Henriettas great grand-daughter is the current owner of the home.
