====== J.G. Tomlin House (BE 213) ====== The George W. Terrill House The J. G. Tomlin House sits on North Main Street in [[Walton]]. It was built c.[[1885]] for [[J.G.

It features a steeply pitched roof hipped to a flat deck, with lower gables. The body of the house is weatherboarded and the gables sheathed in vertical siding. Decorative pierced trim adorns the gables and window hoods. The facade exhibits parlor windows with leaded glass transoms. During an early 20th century remodeling Neoclassical Revival porches were added to the main and south facades, and two-tiered porches were appended to the rear. Behind the house is a former summer kitchen or smokehouse, now used as a playroom. The home was added to the [[National Register]] in 2005. ===== More Information ===== ==== Related websites ==== * National Register Information (PDFs), [[https://npgallery.nps.gov/NRHP/AssetDetail?assetID=01e6bd90-d4cd-4e3d-a529-3b89c6fb46c3|inventory form and photos]] ===== Related Topics ===== * [[Historic Homes]]
