Winbelle, a historic 5 Bedroom 3 Bathroom home in Collins, MS, on 5.44 ACREAS. Built by Winston and Kathryn Belle Speed and has a rich history of blessing and hospitality. The couple designed the home to accommodate their family members, including their two children and Kathryn Belle's widowed mother, and pledged to use the space to bless others. And indeed they did! Recently, the Winbelle home underwent a renovation that aimed to keep its original character intact while also introducing modern updates. The home now boasts a new architectural shingle roof and energy-efficient windows, as well as full LED lighting for more efficient energy use. The original wood floors were kept and refinished to highlight their beauty and historic significance, as the wood came from the very property. The addition of high-end quartz countertops and a dedicated laundry room bring the home into the present day, while a dedicated garage provides modern convenience. In its heyday, Winbelle was always bustling with activity, hosting events such as bridal and baby showers, birthday parties, and even a travel abroad party. Kathryn Belle decorated the home for every occasion, even for President's Day and St. Patrick's Day, and Christmas was a particularly special time, with hand-sewn stockings and staircases filled with smiling faces. Guests at Winbelle included traveling preachers and missionaries, and relatives passing through for family reunions. Winston was a successful businessman, owning service stations and working as a distributor for the American Oil Company. Kathryn Belle was an accomplished pianist and violinist, teaching music and playing at Salem Baptist Church for over 50 years. She was also a member of the Daughters of the American Revolution and Colonial Dames, among other organizations. Winbelle was not just a home, it was a place of love and care for family members in their later years, including Kathryn Belle's mother Alma and several aunts. The Speeds' dedication to serving others and creating a welcoming atmosphere has left a lasting impact on the community of Collins, MS, and the recent renovation of the Winbelle home has ensured that its legacy will continue for years to come.
