Description
editThe original house is believed to have been constructed in 1824, with a rear wing added later. Both the original house and the rear wing are constructed of brick, with a corbelled brick cornice above. There is a one-story shed roof porch along the front of the ante-bellum home. The original house has a hip roof, and the rear wing has a gable roof. Interior features of note include federal style fireplace mantels, fluted trim, built-in cupboards flanking the west fireplace, and a stone dairy in the addition.[1]
In 1995, the home still had two separate staircases: one leading to the front of the house and one leading to the rear of the house. In 2019, after major renovations in 2004–2007, the home had 3 staircases, one to the master suite up front, and a separate staircase to each of the back 2 bedrooms.
