Built in 1898 by Hiram Clay Kellogg, this early Orange County residence reflects a blend of neoclassical and Victorian styles. After the death of his first wife, he created a grand mansion as a gift for his second wife, Helen. Inspired by a love of tall ships, he added a three-story spiral staircase that wraps around a mast-like center and rises to a crow’s nest suspended over open space. Hiram died in 1921, and Helen remained in the home for another 42 years, ultimately passing away there as well. Today, reports of unexplained activity suggest the Kellogg family may still linger within this uniquely designed house.
