It appears from the roof and the paint remaining on the front of the house that there was, at one time, a two-story porch on the front of the building. Probably with the typical columns. Years of neglect probably lead led to it's its eventual demise.
"Open, airy floor plan with neutral and natural colors throughout!"
These are beautiful houses when restored. The layout of this particular design is very familiar to me. The rooms are large and spacious, with high ceilings and tall windows. Designed to stay cool in the Southern heat!
I notice that the house and roof lines have remained straight even though open to the weather -- a testament to the quality construction. This one is a keeper. I wonder, did it survive?
Close to shopping and great schools.
Although "Rake's Progress" remains my personal favorite.
