The Story Mansion

The Story Mansion, a place of wonder and good times, has been integral to life in Bozeman for over 100 years. Current use of the Mansion is as restored, usable vintage space for rental of the 1st floor for events and meetings. Plans for the 2nd and 3rd floors and the Carriage House are as historically rehabilitated space for lease to cultural and educational organizations. Landscaping of the grounds will befit the iconic structures.

A Backdrop of 1900 Vintage Design

The Story Mansion's first floor is beautifully renovated in adherence with "historic preservation" guidelines for early 1900s construction. Architecturally, the Mansion blends Tudor, Queen Anne and predominantly Craftsman design elements. The first floor is minimally furnished with antiques which accent space for arrangements of chairs and tables to accommodate meetings and events. A catering kitchen and accessible rest rooms are available. The mansion is fitted for Wi-Fi. Take a tour of the Mansion.

New Ownership

Early in 2011 the City Commission voted to sell the Story Mansion, the Carriage House and south grounds. The city set criteria for the property's management and its further rehabilitation. Non-profit organizations were considered as potential buyers during 2011. As of June 2012, ownership will be finalized with Exergy Friends of Story Mansion, a 501(c)3.
