Item # GAP06Bearing the name of its first owner, the James Sledge House was built in 1860 just before the Civil War. Mr. Sledge served as an editor of a political newspaper during the Civil War and became bankrupt after the battle of Appomattox. Foreclosure on the home transferred its ownership to Ferdinand Phinizy, a wealthy merchant and money lender. This house is an example of the Gothic Revival style of Victorian architecture, most notably due to its three steep-pitched gables that dominate the façade. The cast-iron porch work is more likely a result of regional influences and is thought to have been produced locally. Limited Edition of 4,000.
