Built by James Vann in 1804, the two-story classic brick mansion is one of the best-preserved Cherokee plantation homes and the first brick home within the Cherokee Nation. The mansion is decorated with beautiful hand carvings and features a remarkable "floating" staircase. After James' death in 1809, his son Joseph inherited the house and occupied it until he was evicted in 1835 by the Georgia Militia.
