Details
Elbert and his wife Louise, received this magnificent house as a wedding gift from Elbert's father, B.D. Orgain. The stately columned porch is repeated inside the house. A dramatic staircase rises from the entrance hall to the second floor and is highlighted by a beveled glass oval window. The home remained in the family until shortly after the death of Louise in 1970. "When Angels Sing," a holiday movie starring Harry Connick Jr., was filmed here in 2011.
