124 South La Grange Road is known as the H.S. Mitchell house. Designed y E.H. Turnock, it was built in 1891 by F.D. Cossitt as a wedding gift for his daughter, who married Mr. Mitchell.
Notice the two-story corner turret with an ornamental finial at its peak. This massive tower is built of random ashlar stone. It and the heavy stone lintel over the windows give the house the “solid” look so characteristic of the Romanesque Revival style.
