This is a dream of an old house to me, like something from a childhood nursery rhyme. In its abandoned state, it’s still full of charm and intrigue. I imagine its days are numbered but wouldn’t it be nice if someone could save it?

In form it appears to be a central hallway cottage, with an overall effect of the Folk Victorian style that was ubiquitous in Georgia in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. What makes this one special, as you can see, is the small vented gable and the saw tooth header board along the screened-in front porch. An industrious carpenter, possibly the owner, certainly had an eclectic taste.
