Connecticut’s Department of Energy and Environmental Protection (DEEP) today announced special architecture tours of the Osborne Homestead Museum in Derby, on Saturday, October 14, 2017 from 10:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m. Visitors will explore the transformation of this modest 1800s farmhouse into an elegant twentieth century Colonial Revival style home and also learn about Frances Osborne Kellogg’s profound attention to detail, the architectural career of her husband Waldo Kellogg, and his design influences in the home.
Guests who like the Cape Cod style craze or who are romantic over Italianate architectural style, will gain an appreciation of this Colonial Revival style home at the Osborne Homestead Museum.
