Clean and simple lines make this a beautiful home. So glad it has found a repurposed use and survives!❤

My grandmother (b.1879) in Chillicothe, OH bought many of Watkins products. My mom told me that she even got some free dinnerware as part of the purchase. I still purchase Watkins products at Target. 🎯

Wow, I love how the house looks very grand on the outside but many of the spaces inside are very cozy and livable. Also love all the warm woodwork.

A room for my dad in memory care is 10k per mo. out of pocket. Depending on the business model the mansion may remain in perpetuity. Lovely home, thanks to you and Dalton for putting this quick bite together for us.

I think Mr Watkins would be pleased that his house is still serving people.

When you said the architect designed university halls, I wasn't surprised. The house looks a lot like some of the older buildings and dorm at my alma mater, the U of Michigan . Very nice.

Very nice and interesting video. I realized that I have some Watkins caramel flavoring on my spice rack. I had never heard of the Watkins name before this video.

Lovely house. I toured several mansions years ago, the one in Sacramento that's a youth hostile now and the now sadly burned down Bidwell in Chico California, Mrs Bidwell designed the house and I realized someone could live in that house easily today as it was, it was very nice but very functional

Hooray! Another surviving beautiful house. As another commenter noted, it does resemble stately collegiate building.

I am glad this house survived, yet I wonder if it has been chopped up into small apartments...its a shame if it has.

I LOVE ALL of the sitting rooms. Its interesting that in most of the rooms the furniture is against the walls, instead of forming conversation areas.

Im just happy every time I know they didn't bulldoze one of these things. I can't imagine the thought process behind destroying one of these beautiful houses
