This two-story 1905 home at 209 West River Street is listed on the National Register of Historic Places as the Hester E. Suydam Boarding House. Clapboard siding, a hipped roof with scalloped-shingle dormers, and an enclosed full-width front porch set off the five-bedroom, two-bath layout. Ten-foot ceilings on the main floor open to a cozy wood stove and a main-floor master with walk-in closet. The remodeled kitchen has all-new appliances; both bathrooms have been remodeled. Laundry is both upstairs and in basement. A basement bonus room includes an egress window and separate side entrance. A detached heated-and-cooled bonus room/office sits outside, along with an irrigation well and a hot tub that stays. Updates include a new roof, windows, HVAC, wiring, plumbing, and hot water heater. The roughly 0.40-acre lot has a large front lawn and mature trees in a quiet neighborhood just west of downtown. City services and Fromberg schools are nearby, with the Clarks Fork valley at the door and Billings a short drive away. A documented piece of Carbon County history that still works as a comfortable family home.
