History
Boling Hall Crenshaw built this 1890 Victorian home across the street from the historic Halliday-Pick House. The Halliday-Pick raised cottage was built before this region gained statehood and remains an historic landmark in the North College Historical District. What is now the Crenshaw House served as Crenshaw's personal residence initially, soon thereafter, the second floor was added to house university students. For many years, Crenshaw, his wife Willie Ella Glenn, and their two daughters, Mary Glenn and Sarah Hall shared the property with university students. William (Will) and Martha Hardie purchased the home in 1942. It served as student housing and as a nursery. Peppi and Fran Verma ( Granddaughter of Cliff Hare) purchased the property when it was in need of significant repair. They restored it and opened it up as a Bed and Breakfast in 1985. George and Lynn Postell carried on the hospitality of the Vermas when they purchased the property in 2008.
