One of Macon’s most unique homes, this was originally built as a clapboard house typical of the Orange Terrace neighborhood but was remodeled, based on plans by architect Peter Dennis, in 1904. W. P. Stevens, owner of Stevens Pottery, expanded on Dennis’s design and added terra cotta highlights, reflecting his prominence in the ceramics industry. In later years, the house was used for boarders and as offices.

Nathan Campbell Munroe (1803-1868) built this unusual Greek Revival house circa 1841 and lived here until his death. When Charles Rogers purchased the estate in 1869, he changed the design so that the front door would open onto the newly established Rogers Avenue, instead of using the original entrance, oriented in the direction of Vineville Avenue.
