Levi-Tenney House (Historic Site #26)

This home was built in 1860 by a Presbyterian pastor and first president of Salado College, Levi Tenney. Tenny and his family lived in the house for about a year before he was released from his position at the college. The home is one story and is quite modest in size. Nevertheless, it is a fine example of the Greek Revival style of symmetry and proportions.  An addition has been added to the back of the structure. Constructed of dressed limestone blocks, it has five-bay front features and displays the use of quoins and flat arches above double-hung windows. The windows have six-over-six lights, projecting portico with cornice, and a flat roof supported by square columns. (NRHP)
