Confessions of a Paintaholic: Holiday Home Tour


Included in the tour of historic Medina homes were 

three on East Liberty…

A Western Reserve version of the Greek Revival (above) 

was built in 1845.

built this 1878 Italianate home in the most 

modern style of the day.

Medina’s finest hotel at the time, constructed 

this Greek Revival in 1855.

(Below) An Arts & Crafts century home on Lafayette Road, 

built in 1912, features prominent oak woodwork, 

beveled and leaded glass and stained glass windows.  

 (Below) An 1860 home on South Court Street reflects 

a careful restoration of the house and gardens, 

including period details

and moved to its current location.
