Samuel B. Newman House by George F. Barber

This house was built in 1892 for Samuel B. and Rena B. Newman. George Barber designed a Queen Anne style house for them (Design 561 in Art in Architecture). However, in 1910 the house caught fire and received major damage. When the house was rebuilt, the roof and front porch were replaced in the Four Square style.

Newman ad from Barber's American Homes). #oldnorthknoxville #knoxvilletn #queenanne #victorianhouse #oldhouse #oldhouselove #georgebarber #foursquarehome #americanfoursquare
