Hart House

The Hart House is a finely constructed home with beautiful oak woodwork, hardwood floors, French doors with original glass, and had been well maintained by Dorothy Hart. The home has a large front porch for visiting and enjoying the view of the temple and Mississippi River. Entering the front door, the large living room has a sofa and love seat, a fireplace and entertainment center. Through double French doors the large dining room seats 8 for dinner and has beautiful oak window seats in the bay window featuring a view of the Mississippi River. Through another set of double French doors you are in the library with over a hundred books about church history and Nauvoo. The kitchen has retained its original pine cabinetry, but added modern appliances for convenience. Off the kitchen is a sun porch with a table for four, offering a view of the garden in the back.

There is a beautiful oak stairway from the living room, and a “servant’s” stairway from the kitchen to the upstairs bedrooms. The two large bedrooms at the back of the home feature queen size beds and walk-in closets. The large master bedroom with a beautiful view of the temple, features a king size bed, walk-in closet, attached half bath, and a TV/VCR. The upstairs hall bathroom has a vanity, toilet and shower.
