The Brame-Bennett House is one of the most charming and important small, Neo-Classical Greek Revival houses in the South. Built in 1840, the house is on the National Register of Historic Places. In total need of restoration. Remarkable surviving architectural details – be sure and look through the pictures to see the level of sophistication throughout the house.
Double parlor and center hall running the entire length of the first floor. Double hung windows provide an enormous amount of natural light. Thick brick masonry walls are covered with plaster on inside and stucco on the outside. A conservation plan and drawings is also available at conservator’s office in Covington.
