History

[edit]

The house was built in 1908 by Frank Boutin Jr. in the Queen Anne style architecture which is exemplified by its sweeping porches, corner turret, dormer windows, and complex gable roof. Boutin Jr. lived in the house for only a few years before moving to Idaho, where he was successful in the lumber industry.[3]

Present

[edit]

The house has been restored by its current owners and is now run as a bed and breakfast called Le Chateau Boutin.[4]
