Up in the grand old Cottage Hills District, stands nonchalantly amongst its historic neighbors, just like it belonged there. And I guess it does. This unassuming youngster was built to be a Bed n’ Breakfast by Mark Waldo in 1987, and was designed to replicate a Victorian Cottage of 1887. Waldo, who was rector of the Episcopal Church of the Ascension for almost 30 years, retired and for another 15 years was owner/operator of what was Montgomery’s most successful B & B, offering Southern hospitality and a beautiful skyline view from its high-up, rocking chair veranda.
