Barney Averitt House, 1890, Statesboro
Built by Barney Averitt using lumber from his sawmill, this home features a variety of pine, oak, and maple floors. The brick was likely added in the early 20th century, when it was remodeled to its present Colonial Revival appearance. It’s now owned by Helen Cannon and home to Georgia’s Bed and Breakfast, a popular Statesboro inn.
Georgian Cottage, 1900, Statesboro
This is a modified example of the Georgian Cottage style common throughout the state.
Eclectic Cottage, 1915, Statesboro
This is one of many homes of this era that feature multiple architectural influences. The overall “feel” is Queen Anne cottage, but there are other elements present.
Folk Victorian Cottage, 1920, Statesboro
The date for this house comes from a real estate archive and is likely a bit late.
Booth House, 1908, Statesboro
Simmons-Tucker-Marsh House, 1915, Statesboro
Architecturally, this Spanish Colonial Revival is one of the most impressive houses in Statesboro. As is the case with several structures in the city’s historic districts, there is a bit of conflict regarding the date of construction; the National Register nomination dates it to 1915 while real estate archives put it at 1917. I generally defer to the National Register until I learn otherwise.
