Details
Near the upper end of the winding driveway to Assisi Heights sits the former home of Dr. Louis B. Wilson, now known as Walnut Hill. This property was just outside the city limits of Rochester when Dr. Wilson purchased it in 1923. When he married Maude Mellish, in 1924, the couple immediately moved into a newly built guest cottage on the site. In 1925 a much larger house, designed by architect Harold Crawford, was completed and the Wilsons occupied it. We invite you to come meet the Wilsons and hear their own personal stories.
