STATESVILLE'S MOST IMPRESSIVE, VIBRANT, AND PRESTIGIOUS EXAMPLE OF VICTORIANA!

Step back with us to a more genteel time:
enjoy the gentle ambiance of the
Victorian Era.
Once the massive oak front doors
close, feel the present-day anxieties melt
away.
Welcome to the Tower House, a
superbly restored 1903 Grand Lady located
in a premiere historic district of beautiful
tree-lined Statesville, North Carolina.

Whether you are in town for business,
pleasure, or just passing through, you
deserve to be pampered by the opulence of
lace sheets, sumptuous food, elegant
heirloom china, crystal, and silver.

Experience the peaceful tranquility of our
par terre gardens, complete with
wisteria-covered arbors and a Koi Pond.

Stroll through lovely gardens and discover
tucked-away benches. Enjoy the presence
of our feathered friends which provide the
ultimate complement to the gardens’ serenity.

Spend a Southern evening on our breezy
porches, or lounge in our turn-of-century
Ladies’ or Gentlemen’s Parlors.

When you are ready to retire, ascend our
wonderful 5-foot wide staircase which leads
to the three spacious bedrooms, complete
with lace linens, which await you.

The staircase could provide a perfect
backdrop to today’s Beautiful Bride,
descending to meet her chosen beau.
