Property Description
The two-story Italianate home features a hip roof with decorative eave gables, pressed-metal roofing, and original weatherboard siding. A wide front porch with paneled posts and sawn brackets welcomes visitors, while large pocket doors open onto side porches overlooking the grounds. Inside, a center-hall, double-pile plan highlights remarkable period details: heavy molded woodwork, plaster crown moldings and medallions, tall arched windows, original hardwood floors, and multiple marble and slate mantels. The gracious front rooms—once the ''morning room'' and music room—retain elaborate finishes and access to the porches.
The dining room includes a built-in China cabinet, while the rear portion of the house holds one of Murfreesboro's earliest indoor bathrooms, complete with original fixtures. A later hyphen connects to the historic kitchen, restored with sensitivity to its original form. Finishing off the downstairs is the ornate front staircase showing the level of craftsmanship present in the home and simpler rear staircase. Upstairs, four bedrooms surround the second-floor passage, each with period mantels and three-part surrounds. An attic with exposed rafters and quatrefoil windows completes the interior.
The contributing outbuildings—including the ornate privy and two structures believed to have housed Holt's craftsmen—remain an extraordinary part of the property's history.
