A Historic Estate with a Story to Tell
Built in 1909 by lumberman Frank M. Spalding and designed by architect Ferdinand Fiske, this Mission-style home was the first residence in Lincoln's Sheridan neighborhood.

1. A semicircular oak staircase with cantilevered steps
2. Period furnishings, antiques, and exquisite wood detailing
3. Natural light pouring in from large windows and sunlit rooms
4. A feeling that's less like a rental and more like stepping into a private chapter of history

Whether you're bringing family together from across the country, hosting a leadership retreat, or celebrating a milestone with close friends, this home offers:
- Space for up to 16 guests
- Privacy for everyone, connection for the group
- A safe, quiet neighborhood just minutes from Lincoln's top spots: Lincoln Children's Zoo, Sunken Gardens, Downtown, Memorial Stadium, Pinnacle Bank Arena, etc.

Summary: Beautiful, spacious and very accommodating. We held an extended family gathering at this historic home and Todd was a wonderful host! Our family of 18 had a great experience and plenty of space. Highly recommend Martha's BNB.
