Hubbard-McFall-King House was built after the honeymoon trip of John and Lavina Hubbard, where they fell in love with similarly styled homes along the Hudson River in New York City. This style, Chinese Chippendale, is a relatively rare type of Queen Anne. It’s scarce in the South. There are four homes in the greater Anderson area that were built in this style. Two are in town. The other two are inaccessible. There is one that was up for sale a few years ago. You can see it here.
Chinese Chippendale architecture refers to specific banister styles influenced by the cabinetmaker and furniture designer Thomas Chippendale.
This Queen Anne cottage was built in 1907 by Jefferson Davis Durden. The Durdens were important to the development of this area in Emanuel County. The home was recently restored.
This Folk Victorian cottage once served as the Methodist Parsonage for the Twin City United Methodist Church. It now serves as the pre-school for the church.
