Description
After living in Fort Worth TX for 15 years, I finally viewed the exterior of this old home. It is the Ball-Eddleman-McFarland House in Fort Worth. This home was built in 1899 on the high bluff overlooking the Trinity River. It was part of a neighborhood known as Quality Hill which featured large Victorian homes, owned mainly by Fort Worth's Cattle Baron Families. Only a small number of these homes remain today. The home was originally designed for Sarah Ball. William Eddleman purchased the house in 1904 shortly after Mrs. Ball passed away. Mr. Eddleman founded the Western National Bank in 1906 and it failed in 1913 Eddleman's daughter, Carrie McFarland, lived in the home until her death in 1978 at the age of 99. In 1979, the home was purchased by the Junior League of Fort Worth. Historic Fort Worth, Inc. is now the owner of the home. This Victorian Home displays some Queen Anne styling with brick, sandstone, and marble used on the exterior of the house. The elaborate interior features mahogany and oak mantles, cornices, coffered ceilings, paneling and parquet floors.

I have always loved Victorians. What a fantastic tour it would be to see a place like this. Your image brings up the colors and mood of the place, enhanced by that sky that you've captured at just the right moment.
