This south Georgia house museum is a one-of-a-kind building. Built between

and cold water, indoor plumbing and modern closets. There are no right
angles in the cottage, and nothing is centered or symmetrical. The 19 rooms have
45 doors and 53 windows. Due to its outstanding architectural
significance, the Lapham-Patterson House was named a National Historic Landmark
in 1975.
