Default Does anyone know about this house?

It sits on Buena Vista Blvd, about halfway between the sixes. It looks like it’s an old house but doesn’t appear to be occupied. Just wondering . . .

Try searching for Brinson-Perry House (the links I can find won't work on this forum)

If this is the house on the roundabout with Bonita Blvd, it is a "shaker" house. It was recently renovated, and I think they have tours. If memory serves me correctly this was originally on the property that the villages currently occupies, probably not the original site. As I understand it these houses were raised to provide cooling in the hot weather.

Is the house going to sit forever? We’re going back to see if they allow tours. Thank you very much!
