Originally built c.

1820 in Covington by George Carr with 1840s updates, this magnificent home was moved to its present location in Oxford in 1975. This site was once owned by Methodist Bishop James O. Andrew and was called "Chestnut Grove" - a back wing was added after the house was moved to its present location. High Point at Chestnut Grove is included in the Historic American Buildings Survey of 1935 as a structure of outstanding merit. #oxfordga #georgia #historicpreservation #architecture #habs #oldhouselove #houseportrait #georgiahistory
