House Adds Color to 2009 River Bend House Tour
1156 9th Street
Bearing bright blue paint, the Victorian at 1156 9th Street stands out as one of the most distinct homes in Cheatom Park.
Built in 1888, the home was restored in 2009 by Don L. Curry and Justin W. Hancock. The two renovated the house from top to bottom, including opening up the two lower porches and rebuilding the home’s upper balcony.
Some of the home’s most notable features include the original stained-glass windows, carved main staircase, bathrooms with heated-tile floors, and extensive gardens surrounding it on the quarter-acre lot.
This home will be open for touring during the 2009 River Bend Home Tour, Saturday September 12th from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Sunday September 13th from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. This year’s theme is “West 9th streetcar line Historic District.”
