On yesterday Mr. and Mrs. \V. A. Leo moi
ed into their new residence on Main stree!
and as it may interest cur readers to kno>
what Abbeville is dolns in the way of hous
building, wo append a brief description of th
dwelling, which we think one of the mos
tasteful, commodious and well arranged li
Abbeville, reflecting the highest credit upoi
Cant. J. V/. Nichols, the contractor, mid hi
subordinates.
Jt is a two-story building, -with a slate man
sard roof and tower, having besides a roa
piazza, two piazzas, fronting North and Eas
respectively, nnd adorned witli lmndsorn
turned banisters, above and below. The vie\
from Mai a street on the North-East is espcc
iaiiy tine, with its stall ly front, encased in ;
fresh coat of grey paint and darker trim
mlngH, iti ornamental brackets, its heavil;
cappcd windows, its mansard slate roof an*
dormer windows, and its tower, upon whicl
Is to be placed an iron rsi.il.
From the front piazza, we enter through or
natc double doors, into r. spacious hall, twclv
feet wide, with a ceilin; thirteen lcet high
and extending the lengt i of the house, forty
two feet, and divided by an archway in tti
centre; t!ie front lin 11 having a beautiful stuc
coed centerpiece, and cornicing. On caci
side of the hall, are folding doors, those 01
the left opening into the parlor and dinirii
room, and those on the right into the chain
bers, which are separated by double doors
The parlor and dining room are separated b;
folding doors. These rooms and the chain
bers on the first floor are 18x20 feet, wit'a ceil
ing thirteen feet high, and aro beautifull;
plastered; tlie first two have ornate centei
pieces and cornices of stucco. the doors an,
other woodwork being handsomely gralnei
in walnut The parlor Jias a marble mante
piece, and tiled hearth, and the other mantel
are finely grained In marble, oak and walnut
In the rear ot the dining room is the pantrj
which leads to the hack pinzza, nnd from till
afllghtof steps conduct, to a platform, con
nected with the kitchen and well; the kitcli
en roof extending over this platform am
forming a commodious and airy appendag
to the kitchen. Opening upon the back piazzi
are also the store room and a dressing roon
A spacious stairway, surmounted by u wal
nut railing and banisters, lead to a wide entr;
above, upon which open three chambers, eaei
furnished with airy dressing rooms and Jlnel;
grained 111 oak. walnut and marble respect
ively. Tliese chambers ire till 1Sx20 feet, will
ceilings eleven feet high. A stairway leads ti
the attic above, wlileh is not finished, bu
which conld furnisii three large chambers.
The house is well ventilated, with larg
windows, each sash provided with weight*
and having two lar?c fanes of glass to th
sash. Under and around tho front of th
house Is brick lattice work, neatly painte<
and penciled. The structure Is high and dry
and a handsome fence, with one single am
two double Rates set ofl' the dwelling and it
surroundings.
The plastering was* executed by James Allci
of Greenville, and is done in his best style
ond the graining by Mr. Benton Jones^ of thi
place, who never UIU nner worK. we navi
seeu nothing to surpass uls grainings In wal
nnt, oak and marble. The chimneys wen
built by Z. Build, of G reenville, an expert
enced mason, and are warranted not to smoke
The woodwork Is of tii-2 best material, am
the workmanship reflects credit upon th
skill of (he two Messrs. Nichols, sons of tin
contractor, James Taggnrt, J. A\r. Wells, D. 1!
Smith and James Jackson. Mr. Cater put U|
most of the fencing and Mr. Watlcins asslstec
Mr. Jones in the painting. The contractor
Mr. Nichols, built the Presbyterian church li
Greenville, find that gem of arc'iitectura
beauty, the Roman Catholic church, of till
place, and we trust that Abbeville may fur
ulsh sufficient inducements in the lutu'ro ti
retain him hero.
