Mecca for the Arts & Crafts Movement and home to history on William Lightfoot Price who was born in our house. Lovely homage to Will Price, founding voice to the American movement. Will's father, James M. Price, had a Nursery in the mid-1800s at our house. Rose Valley's unique architecture and culture is cataloged here.
