Larimore Home, Alabama, United States

Simpler time
Wonderful old home in original condition, heart pine floors, matching fireplaces, full of antiques both from the home originally or donated. Dining in the cellar, but very nice and airy. It's especially nice and cozy at Christmas. Staffed by volunteers from the school, the Associated Women's Organization. They have some great cooks too and can accommodate fairly large groups. I can't give a "when" because we often have holiday get-togethers there.

It is no more!
Just to let you know that this beautiful old home recently caught fire, not once, but twice and has been torn down. Hopefully it will be replaced in time. So many memories for so many people!

An Icon from the Past
Honestly, I've never toured the Larimore Home. But I did grow up in Florence and attended Mars Hill Bible School, where the Larimore Home stands as a reminder of the family who started the school, and it was always near my classrooms during ten years on campus. I recently had the opportunity to re-visit the school since my friends teach there, and I wish I'd had time to tour the Larimore Home, but didn't on that trip. I will next time!
