Home tour Article Excerpt Beacon House An iconic Victorian in town has joined the tour this year the 1902 Victorian-era mansion built as a residence for banker J.J. Osborne and occupied, since 1961, by Beacon House residential and outpatient treatment facility. Designed by renowned architect William H. Weeks, the house is an alchemy of Colonial Revival detailing and Victorian styling. Through the largesse of Samuel F.B. Morse, founder and president of the Pebble Beach Company, Beacon House was able to acquire the house to the benefit ofthe community. "So many people see this beautiful building and don't actually know what it is or what we do at Beacon House," said Case Mailker Carollee Edmonds, who has had two historic homes on the tour. "Because it is a house and not a commercial building, we have kept it a home atmosphere where people can feel they are among family. We walk a fine line between respecting and preserving the historic quality ofthe home while also accommodating those who live and work there. It is a challenge to keep it up, but it is so important to respect the space and work with it and not alter it." , OCR Text: Home tour Article Excerpt Beacon House An iconic Victorian in town has joined the tour this year the 1902 Victorian-era mansion built as a residence for banker J.J.
