Heaven Sent Bed And Breakfast, Hannibal, Missouri

The Mansion is one of the remnants of "Millionaires Row," an impressive block of grand homes, built and owned by some of Hannibal's wealthiest and most influential citizens. Built in 1858-1864, it became the townhouse of John & Helen Garth, childhood chums of young Sam Clemens who remained lifelong friends of the writer. The Italianate architecture is reminiscent of an Italian country villa with the cupola on top providing a view of the Mississippi River. The house is on the National Historic Register.

Several of the original wood mantles with marble insets remain in the home. Beautiful windows throughout the home, original stain glass and leaded glass still remain today. Pocket doors in the parlor and the library as well as built-in bookcases filled with books for your enjoyment.
