Description and history

Built in 1895, the 2-1/2 story, wood-frame house is notable as one of the city's finest turn-of-the-century Queen Anne style houses. It features the irregular massing, typical of the style, with a single-story wraparound porch with delicate spindled woodwork, and a three-story circular tower topped by a conical roof. The house was built by Augustus M. Garrison, a lawyer, and remained in his family into the 21st century.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on March 25, 1982.[1] It currently functions as part of the House of Wadley Bed and Breakfast Inn.
