A 1908 Victorian-style home that residents of the King William Historic District refer to as "The Dollhouse" has hit the market for just shy of $1. 2 million after spending decades in the same family's hands.

The residence gets its name from what its online listing refers to as a "cheery pastel exterior that instantly lifts the spirits." But the five-bedroom, two-bath property has more than curb appeal going for it.

Gilded-age architectural details run through the house, including transom windows, beautifully cut molding and a magnificent stairway that transforms the foyer into quite a statement.
