Rear view of a two-story stuccoed brick mansion with hipped roof featuring in front a two-story portico with entablature and pediment supported by four heroic unfluted Doric columns and sculptured busts in niches to either side of the entrance. The rear is distinguished by a terraced waterfall fountain running between stairways culminating in horseshoe steps ascending to the entrance. The rear entrance has stone trim and a pediment surmounted by an urn. Edward H. Inman built the house in the 1920s, and Spencer Tunnell was the landscape architect. Wood carving was primarily by H. J. Millard. In 1966, the Atlanta Historical Society purchased the home and its furnishings. The house is now open to the public. For more information see Linley, John.
