Located in Mobile’s Old Dauphin Way Historic District, on east corner of Dauphin and Common Streets, the distinctive Greek Revival home, with Italianate features, was originally built, in 1859, as a typical Carolina side-hall house. The handsome, but unpretentious, home received an addition, a side wing to the east, in 1890, increasing interior living space, as well as a porch. The original craftsmanship is exemplary; the framing is mortise and tenon with heavy pegged bracing. The carefully and beautifully preserved cypress and pine woodwork is a work of art! Large windows throughout the home allow light to flow; floors are of heart pine. The floor plan is gracious, comfortable and adaptable for today’s living. Downstairs includes a welcoming entry, large double parlors with operable pocket doors, an inviting den or library and large kitchen.
