The Historic Spencer house <br />The Historic Spenser house <br />has been a Waimea landmark <br />for over 180 years. <br />Still owned by the Spencer <br />family, the original home was <br />built in 1840 and boasts being <br />the first western -style house <br />in the area. A kitchen, <br />bathroom and additional <br />rooms were added later. <br />While most of the family <br />furniture has been dispersed, <br />there are some portraits on <br />the walls, as well as ghost <br />stories that typically <br />accompany all old houses. <br />Over the years, the Spencer House has been a family home, a hotel, a law office and a restaurant. It has <br />also accommodated various offices and businesses. Some parts of the house are currently under repair, <br />but visitors are welcome to walk through most of the building's ground floor to appreciate its historical <br />significance and vintage craftsmanship.
