Cohen-Tarbutton House, 1904, Sandersville

This crown jewel of Sandersville’s residential historic district was built for H. E. Cohen, founder and first president of the Sandersville Railroad. Judge Charles Thigpen and Governor Thomas Hardwick also lived here before it was purchased by Benjamin James Tarbutton in 1924. I believe the present appearance was part of a restoration by Atlanta architect Norman Davenport Askins.

    Not being from Georgia, I had no idea what a beautiful town Sandersville is! No shortage of grand homes either.
