Bed & Breakfast an ageless beauty
Dr. William P. Nicholson had the house built around 1891 as a wedding present for his bride. Walter T. Downing was the architect -- an Atlantan whose designs included buildings at Oglethorpe University and Georgia Tech as well as homes for other prominent Atlantans. When the house was built, it was sited as far as you could go and still be in the city of Atlanta. Nicholson family members remember fox hunting on the grounds.
