History
The Combellack–Blair House, designed in the Queen Anne Style of the Late Victorian architecture era, was built by William Hill Combellack in 1895.[2] One of the residence's early owners operated Combellack's, a store on Main Street in Placerville.[3] The Arthur Blair family purchased it in 1924. It served as a bed and breakfast for several years, but is now a private residence.[4]
