A Queen Anne-style cottage, this six-room brick-and-wood home was built for $1,500 with heart pine flooring, plate glass windows, a fireplace in every room, and a large porch. It survives largely as originally built, including fireplaces with original tile surrounds and mahogany mantles, although the front porch was enclosed in 1986 for a retail establishment. Clifford Pierce Norman, his wife Nancy Lee Shell Norman, and their three daughters were the only family to occupy the house, and Clifford worked as a cotton broker and merchant.
