Kimberly Crest, a picturesque French chateau style home, built in 1897, is a well preserved example of the Victorian Era in California.  The 7,000 square foot, three-story chateau sits on a six and one quarter acre estate two miles south of downtown Redlands, and is enjoyed by more than 11,000 visitors annually. 

Originally built by Mrs. Cornelia A. Hill, a widow from New York State, the home was purchased by J. Alfred Kimberly (a co-founder of the Kimberly-Clark Corporation) and Helen Cheney Kimberly in 1905.  Their widowed daughter, Mary Kimberly Shirk, lived in the home from 1920 until her death in 1979.
