Maryborough Heritage City

Maryborough, population 38,000 is listed with the historical society as a heritage city because nearly all the homes are built of this era.

Built in 1914, this house has had a meticulous restoration, both inside and out, and carries a trip down memory lane, rooms inside as well as a wagon wheel seat, can be seen on my profile page. Owned by a retired cane farming family, the rooms are made up each day, and lived in as if it were yesteryear. A lot of the furniture and memorabilia have been bought at auctions, to maintain the originality in step with the era.

Interesting porch. Unfortunately, it is obscured a bit by the fence, large title, and branches on the left. Moving your perspective forward, reducing the obstructions would help.

This photo would be so much better if the fence was not in the way

Very nicely done. I can almost see this for sale in a postcard rack on vacation while staying at that charming inn.
