Vicksburg Inn (Raudenbush House)

-A A +A
Raudenbush House
1886, Enoch Miller. 6444 Old Turnpike Rd. (PA 45)
  • (William E. Fischer, Jr.)

Joseph S. Raudenbush's Victorian Eastlake mansion was a showcase for the carpentry skills of Enoch Miller. The gables, balconies, and porches are covered with intricate patterns of stickwork and spindlework, now painted with a palette of autumn colors; five tall chimneys soar above the riot of decoration. The steam-heated interior was equally elaborate with etched and stained glass and cherry, oak, chestnut, and walnut woodwork.
