About

This house was built in 1909 for Cicero and Victoria Smith. After retiring from the railroad in 1900, Cicero joined his family in Palisade where they had already planted acres of fruit trees. Cicero became a fruit grower, an inventor, and eventually went to Utah to prospect for silver and lead. Smith's daughter, Helen, lived in this house until her death in 1978. The remaining acreage was developed into the Victorian Heights subdivision with a street named after Cicero. In 2002, Dave and Michelle Walker purchased the house and opened a bed and breakfast in 2004. The original sunburst above the second story window is a common detail on the area's upper class houses build in the early 1900s.
