Colonel Tom Lewis, an Atlanta attorney, built this five-bedroom Queen Anne-style house from bricks made in the pasture behind it. It has rock foundations under each room, inside walls 12 inches thick, fireplaces in every room, and heart pine floors. Tom H. Manning, his brother James H., and his sister Annie occupied the house from 1905-1953. Alpharetta Mayor Sim Manning and his wife, Sarah Payne Manning, moved into the house in 1948 and raised their three children there.
