Excerpt from The National Register of Historic Places: Supplement 1974 Built as a home for merchant-planter James Turner Kendall, this 2-story, frame, Italianate dwelling was proof of its owner's continued prosperity during a post-civil War economic decline. Noteworthy fea tures are the fluted colonnettes on the first floor veranda and the second floor por tico, the hipped roof, and the square cu pola set atop a raised platform and topped by a finial. Interior decor includes Italian marble mantels, gold leaf cornices in the double parlors, and walnut furniture carved to match the woodwork. Private.
