An interesting house that has been used to make a movie several years ago and was built in 1893 for Joseph Bennett Bell, the son-in-law of Merrill Pratt, nephew of town founder Daniel Pratt. When it was built it was at the edge of town.
No longer on the outskirts is like many of the older homes in Sacramento. Many are still beautiful though, as is this lovely home. I like the way the older homes have front facing patios.
