Description

Bring up to five of your friends to tour three grand Manchester homes and enjoy a progressive dinner at the same time!! Begin with cocktails on Walnut Street at the home of Chris Morin, then on to a seated dinner on Amherst Street at the home of Michael Duffy and Stephen Cornish, and finish with dessert on Belmont Street with Terry and John David Heinzmann.  All are eager to welcome you to their homes.


At your first stop on Walnut Street, you will enter the former home of R. G. Sullivan, cigar manufacturer. Built in 1892 by local architect William M. Butterfield and listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the home retains its original details and is one of the finest example of Queen Anne architecture in the city. 


Next on Amherst Street, you will visit a Colonial Revival-style home built in 1904 for Henry and Mary Bailey. Mr. Bailey owned a granite monument workshop and quarry. Michael Duffy and Stephen Cornish have been working to lovingly restore the home since 2010.


The last stop on your dinner tour will be a grand 1890 Colonial Revival home constructed by John Campbell on Belmont Street, a traveling salesman. The house had many owners, including John Stark's great-granddaughter, Elizabeth. Terry and John David are honored to be the current stewards of this home.


 


Donated by Chris Morin, Michael Duffy, Stephen Cornish, and Terry and John David Heinzmann.
