A stunning example of late 19th Century Italianate architecture, the Samuel and Sophia Ruby House was designed to be a showplace and has remained one to this day. With a storied history, the property has had several different uses over the years, namely the site of Winterset's first hospital in 1920, a post WWII boarding house and currently as the Ruby House Bed & Breakfast. The home, at 5,889 SF of living area, is considered the largest residential dwelling in Madison County. It features 7 bedrooms, 6 bathrooms, a grand entrance staircase, butler's staircase, a parlor, a custom designed chef's kitchen and an abundance of storage and closet space. Some of the unique features of the property include the original 9' pocket doors, two original fireplaces, four uniquely designed decorative plaster ceiling medallions, original handcrafted hardwood staircase and the original hand crank doorbell.
