/ref> The house was designed by architect Brice Leatherman for James W. Burgess in a style designed to open up interior space and let in more natural light, and was completed in 1873. Its hexagonal elements are even rarer than octagon houses built on similar principles. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1987.
