This landmark estate, bed and breakfast, and wedding venue with cottages, has ties to Mark Twain. The Garth Woodside Mansion, an extraordinary 36-acre Victorian estate just outside historic downtown Hannibal, has over 150 years of American history. This prominent property has a historical tie to Samuel Clemens (Mark Twain). Mark Twain was a frequent guest of the Garth family and often stayed in what is now known as the Mark Twain Room, where original furnishings from his visits remain. The Garths and the Clemens family shared a long personal friendship, and this home served as a quiet retreat for Twain during his returns to his beloved hometown. The Victorian mansion and additional cottages sit on approximately 36 acres of manicured lawns, rolling pastures, and wooded privacy. The expansive 8-bedroom main house each has private ensuite bathrooms. The wrap-around veranda overlooks scenic Missouri countryside. Original features include hand-carved walnut woodwork, marble fireplaces, original light fixtures, and most of the home’s original furnishings. The mansion’s architecture and furnishings remain remarkably authentic, while modern comforts have been seamlessly integrated. The property has long operated as a high-end bed & breakfast and wedding venue with additional cottages, and has earned consistent acclaim for its historic charm, fine dining experiences, and quiet elegance. The property could easily transition into a private residence, corporate retreat, family compound, or heritage investment property. The property size is 9,021 square feet.
