Eugene J. Carpenter House

The Eugene J. Carpenter House is a Georgian Revival style residence located on a spacious property in the Loring Hills area of Minneapolis. The home contains multiple bedrooms and bathrooms arranged across a substantial building footprint.

The original structure was built in the 1880s but underwent a complete redesign just after the start of the 20th century by a prominent local architect. This transformation altered both the exterior appearance and interior layout of the entire property.

The home reflects how wealthy families in the early 20th century chose to redesign their residences according to formal architectural fashions. Visitors can see how these choices shaped the way rooms were organized and decorated.

The building now operates as a guest accommodation and is accessible to visitors who arrange a stay in advance. Checking availability and planning ahead makes it possible to experience the historic interior spaces.

The interior blends two different design movements and was created in collaboration with a celebrated local designer known for decorative work. This partnership between architects and designer in planning the interior spaces is rarely documented in homes of this period.
