Sanders Home

Wilbur F. Sanders, a cornerstone of Helena's earliest terrritorial community, built this home for his family in 1875. Originally an Italianate style residence, the Sanders family extensively remodeled the house around 1889 to its present appearance. Now a bed and breakfast, the gracious home is located at 328 N. Ewing.
