Description
Don't miss out on the opportunity to own Ithamar Whipple's dream home!!
He built it in 1883, 7 years before Wyoming Statehood.
Radiant with beveled and stained glass windows, it would be the Victorian-style showpiece of Cheyenne's famous Cattle Baron's Row.
Whipple was a wealthy merchant and cattle baron, who founded the Wyoming Stockgrowers Association.
He supervised the construction of his home, that would soon become known simply as, Whipple House. Located at 300 East 17th Street during Cheyenne's Golden Age, this magnificent home was one of the elite residences in the Wyoming Territory.
Ithamar Whipple sold this local Cheyenne landmark to Territorial Supreme Court Justice John Lacey.
Lacey was the man who defended notorious outlaw Tom Horn, and infamous oilman Harry Sinclair.
In 1986, Whipple House was completely restored to it's original state, and listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
The Property was reconfigured in 2006 and once again in 2011.
Most recently the building was home to an art gallery, and with it's gleaming hardwood floors, really lends itself perfectly for that application.
Zoned for Mixed Use Residential, you can let your imagination be your guide.
As it stands currently, the property will suit a number of commercial uses: offices for Attorneys, Accountants, an Architectural or Engineering Firm, Real Estate offices, a High End Spa or Salon, - All would make an impression of prominence and prestige with clients and the community in general.
With minor renovation, and some imagination, the property could be reverted back to a magnificent residence with expansive arching doorways, and breathtaking tiled fireplaces.
This is truly a rare opportunity to own a property of such caliber and stature!
