The Olde Rectory Bed & Breakfast LLC

Located in the southeast corner of Iowa, Albia is the county seat of Monroe County. Noted for its coal production in the late 1800s Albia was home to many mining families and the physicians who tended to them. This home was built by Dr Powell in 1901 in an Edwardian style. No expense was spared in the beautiful maple and quarter sawn oak pocket doors, pivot doors, columns and staircase. With two parlors, a library and formal dining room this was early 20th century elegance. At the top of the oak staircase is a large original stained glass window depicting Rebecca at the well.
