Utilitarian houses of this type, divided by a continuous middle wall and with a front gable orientation are often identified as “double shotgun” houses. The form is increasingly rare throughout Georgia and is almost always associated with some form of tenancy. This one is somewhat unusual in that it has a hip roof.
I like the hip roof. Could this be a duplex? It appears to have two doors.
Hi Brian, Great photos again. This old farmhouse has what we call a hip roof today. Not very common at least in S. Ga. Took lots of extra labor. Also, noticed fairly wide overhang of roof. Also not common then but is now. Great protection for a home from rain or shine. Also kept much cooler in pre-AC days. Thanks for a glimpse at other places I probably will never see. Thanks.
