It’s a gem, a Marion treasure.
Situated among century-old oak trees and surrounded by the original cast iron fence, the historic Colonial Revival Barlow home, built in 1903, welcomes guests with its sprawling curved front porch.
Once a welcoming gathering place for Marion’s social circle, the entry features a tile mosaic floor proclaiming the monogram of Shauck F. Barlow, the home’s owner, along with wife Ida. The entry walls are paneled with intricately carved leather, while the ceilings throughout the home feature ornate plaster work.
