Explore the Timeless Architecture of Mount Repose

Mount Repose was built in 1824 for William Bisland, on lands granted his father, John Bisland, by the Spanish Crown in 1782. It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 1979. Originally constructed in the Federal style in 1824, Mount Repose was a 2 1/2 story single-pile house with central hall. The columns, six above and six below, are unrelieved in their simplicity, and two side wings can be seen to the left and right. The strong lines of the heavy chimneys provide a further interesting touch.
