    I hope whoever is fortunate enough to purchase this beautiful period home will not close it to the public. This mansion is an absolute masterpiece. A work of art worthy of the world's finest museums. As one previous commenter mentioned the aspect of slavery it may be of interest to know that many of these antebellum mansions were designed and built primarily by black craftsmen who were in service to the property owners for whom they toiled. All of humankind owes a debt of gratitude to these men and the hands that built these homes.

      @@rainbowranddy Oh, they were definitely NOT built by these mysterious “black craftsman”. Heck, the slaves didn’t even speak English or read. The Plantation owners did the planning and craftsmanship of these homes, and the slaves just did the simple labor. That’s all. So NO, we don’t need to praise the blacks for anything bc they didn’t do anything great for these homes. Not being mean, but it’s the truth.

      They were absolutely painted from day one. That was the high style trend of the day. The Greek Revival style wanted to mimic ancient architecture as closely as possible, and that included painting all the woodwork white which would mimic the look of ancient marble temples. You can watch our earlier video on “historic painted woodwork” to get a true look at when woodwork was and was not painted.

Hopefully I will be able to remove it all before I leave eventually. Hard to imagine someone buying it for so much. They would have to enjoy the public eye and the scorn of some of the social justice warriors evident in the comments. Why can’t people just let sleeping dogs lie and enjoy the fact that such a beautiful place is still around. With all the McMansions around today s large home is not unusual or strange I hope people will grow into the present .
