Before and After: Selma Mansion.
These photos are a great way to kick off the festive season. Historic homes really shine during the holidays, reminding us that our traditions are drawn from generations past.
The house is Selma Mansion, in Leesburg, VA, a 1902 Colonial Revival style house. It served as a home for several generations and then as a commercial event facility, hosting weddings, etc., before becoming vacant and neglected.
After several decades of abandonment, it has recently been beautifully restored by a couple as their home. More information about the house, the owners, and the restoration can be found at https://selmamansionrebirth.com/.
