Levi Wickham, a weaver, built this home and the adjoining Samuel Noakes House circa 1818-1823. From William Greenway Russell\u2019s recollections of Winchester, Wickham relocated his home to 203 South Braddock and his shop into 201 South Braddock shortly before moving to Wheeling, West Virginia prior to 1830.<\/p>\n<p>While the exterior maintains its appearance as a Federal-style residence, the interior has been updated with modern amenities for an artist\u2019s loft studio. The historic windows feature acoustic panels by Indow Window to minimize noise intrusion. While the front sitting room is cozy with traditional club chairs and a sofa upholstered in sea-foam velvet, the primary living area is spacious and light-filled thanks to an array of south-facing windows and Velux skylight. The architect-designed open floor plan encompasses a dining area with seating for six, a modern kitchen featuring a spacious  granite countertop, and a two-story vaulted sitting area.<\/p>\n<p>Join us at the Wickham House on Saturday evening from 6-9 p.m. to attend the Preview Party for light refreshments and drinks. The Wickham House is also open for Daylight Tours on Sunday, December 4 between 1-5 p.m.<\/p>\n<p><em>Please take a moment to thank the Holiday House Tour Advertising Sponsor Murphy Beverage Company for supporting PHW and local preservation! <\/em><br \/>\n<center><a href=\"http:\/\/www.phwi.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/murphybev.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.phwi.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/murphybev-300x239.png\" alt=\"Murphy Beverage Company\" width=\"300\" height=\"239\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-3786\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.phwi.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/murphybev-300x239.png 300w, https:\/\/www.phwi.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/murphybev-768x612.png 768w, https:\/\/www.phwi.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/murphybev-1024x816.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.phwi.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/murphybev.png 1510w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/center><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Levi Wickham House 203 South Braddock Street John Chesson Site of the Preview Party, Saturday, December 3, 6-9 p.m. This limestone house may be approaching two hundred years old, but it has been updated with modern sensibilities in mind.
