Victorian Springtime and Victorian Treasures - VSTs & VTs : VST09 Sheila's GIBNEY HOME -South Bend, IN RETIRED

GIBNEY HOME SOUTH BEND, INDIANA The history on back reads, "Built in 1888 by A.D. Baker, the Gibney home is located on one of the most beautiful blocks in the Historic District. Baker, Secretary and Treasurer of the South Bend Chilled Plow Company, built the home for entertaining and living comfortably. In 1940, after the death of the Bakers, the house became the office of Dr. Pausak, an Obstetrician. Dr. Pausak moved his practice in 1959 and the house stood unoccupied for seventeen years. Jeffrey Gibney purchased the house, which was in a terrible state of repair in 1976. Today the landscaping of the front and back, with the use of perennial flowers and vines, is very reminiscent of the nineteenth century. One striking aspect is the decptiveness of its size built practically from property line to property line. Only when you enter the house do you realize its true dimensions."
