This historic building is said to have been one of
the original farmhouses in the area. Nonetheless, it has withstood the
ravages of time better than many newer ones, and we've kept it in good
condition and made many upgrades to it. The building is built on a rock
foundation with oversized timbers (they don't make 'em that way anymore),
and is very warm in winter thanks to a powerful steam boiler in the basement.
Many years ago, before Laramie's Ivinson Memorial Hospital was established,
a doctor bought the house, added three bedrooms, and turned it into a hospice
for his patients. Today, it's divided into four separate apartments --
three 1-bedroom units and one 3-bedroom unit. All have separate entrances,
and the sound insulation between them is quite good. (See the descriptions
of the individual units for inside views of each.) We've maintained and
improved the property for several years, adding a lot of amenities. This
view shows the front of the house. It's located in a quiet residential
neighborhood 3 blocks from the University of Wyoming Classroom Building
and 2 blocks from Gateway Plaza, which contains Safeway, Hastings Music
and Video, KMart, and several other stores. It's also within a few blocks
of several good restaurants and 2 blocks from a large laundromat. This
is an ideal location for UW students, faculty, or staff; however, anyone
who lives and/or works in Laramie will find this property an attractive
and convenient place to live.
