Warner House Review

The murals lining the hall staircase in this 1716 home might be the oldest-known murals still in their original place in the United States. The house itself is a noted example of Georgian architecture, with 18-inch-thick brick walls. The west-wall lightning rod is believed to have been installed in 1762 under the supervision of Benjamin Franklin.
