T. Austin and Ernestine L. Finch House is a historic house located in Thomasville, North Carolina. Built-in 1921, it is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.[1][2]

History

[edit]

The 6,570-sq.ft house was erected as per Renaissance Revival architecture style in 1921 on a lot that Ernestine Lambeth Finch received as a wedding gift from her parents John Walter and Daisy Sumner Lambeth, who then resided in the home on the adjacent parcel to the east. It was later enlarged in 1938.[3] The structure consists of "stuccoed walls, green Ludowici-Celadon tile hip roof, deep eaves supported by shaped rafter ends, wood casement and double-hung multipane windows and French doors".[4]

As of 2021, the house is privately owned and its premises are offered as a destination wedding venue.[5]
