Donovan House
1425 West Calumet Court
River Hills
Designation Year: 1991
This house, built for the Seaman family between 1929 and 1931, was designed by one of Milwaukee’s outstanding architects, Fitzhugh Scott, as a manor house in the Cotswold style. It features outstanding craftsmanship in all its construction details both inside and out. Julie Orlandini did the ceiling plaster design. Because of its design and workmanship, it is probably the most outstanding example of a large manor-type residence in Milwaukee County.
