364 Vista Street

Built in 1889 for hardware merchant George Eddings and later home to Ashland mayor D.B. Provost, the Eddings-Provost House has watched over the town from its hillside above the boulevard for 137 years. Designed by Col. James Norris, it is Queen Anne at its most confident: a veranda wrapping the northwest corner on spool-turned columns, hand-carved scallop shells set into the bay window frieze, and that same fan motif answered again inside on the stair. Ten-foot ceilings. Fir and mahogany throughout. Three fireplaces, one with a beveled-mirror overmantel. Stained glass, period fixtures, a third-floor loft under skylights. Four bedrooms, three baths, & rooms with real breathing room. A second tax lot holds a permitted 440 sq ft ADU, garage, & in-ground pool framed by terraced river-rock walls. Kitchen and baths await a new vision. Listed on the National Register in 1980, beside its 1889 twin, the Carter House. Rare, documented, & ready for its next family. Request historical information
