Historic Waterhouse Residence & Carpentry Museum
-
William H. Waterhouse was a carpenter who came to Central Florida in the early 1880s and built this lovely home overlooking Lake Lily. Pristinely restored and maintained by the Maitland Historical Society, the home, Waterhouse’s carpentry shop, and the property’s remarkable collection of hand-crafted furniture offer a glimpse into the DIY days of Maitland’s past. Woodworking buffs will be wowed by Waterhouse’s extensive use of heart of pine, a wood rarely seen today. Tours lasting about 40 minutes are offered. The Waterhouse facilities nicely complement the Maitland Historical & Telephone Museums, both located just a few blocks away and also run by the Maitland Historical Society.
