Irondale Inn's first family moved into
their lovely new stone home about 1838. Master
for the ironworks nearby, the new owner designed
his home for comfort and security. Ironically,
the house also provided safety to runaway slaves
as a station on the underground
railroad.
Added
to the home in 1920, an engaging sun room
promises the enchantment of summer or winter
solstice in solitude or camaraderie. Entered
through an authentic Jefferson portal, its
western view transforms the panorama each
sunset. ( Shown Below )
