Mary Lee Davis House
Mary Lee Davis House, Heritage house in Fairbanks, United States.
The Mary Lee Davis House at 410 Cowles Street features a bungalow architectural style with one and a half stories at the corner of Cowles and 5th Avenue.
Built around 1916, this residence became the first in Fairbanks to install a coal heating system and remains the oldest continuously inhabited house in the city.
Mary Lee Davis, an author of 'We Are Alaskans', incorporated distinctive elements like hardwood oak flooring, built-in bookshelves, and a photography dark room.
The building now operates as Alaska Heritage House Bed and Breakfast, offering accommodation with period furnishings and fully equipped kitchen facilities.
The construction required specific materials shipped from Seattle, while most building components came from local Alaskan sources due to high transportation costs.
