Home’s History

The home on 110 North Jefferson is the very first T.J. Collins house built in Staunton. It was built for the Eubanks family, a fruit and vegetable broker, in 1891. You can still see the “E” in the carved brackets on the front porch. In 1913 the family extended the home to include the library and second bedroom above on the south side of the house.

The home changed hands after the Eubanks family several times. By the 1970s it was converted into low-rent apartments on the first and second floor and rooming board apartments sharing a common bath on the third floor. By the 1990s, it was abandoned.

The home was purchased in 2008. It has undergone several necessary steps to ready it for the owner prepared to restore it back into the grand home it once was…
