Information

A two-story portico with fluted Iconic columns, an entrance with a fanlight and sidelights, and side porches characterize this home as a textbook example of the Neoclassical style. Nashville architects Fletcher and Bell designed this home in 1910 for George and Tempe Swoope Darrow, an affluent and flamboyant couple that previously owned Oaklands Mansion and once arranged for a choral scholarship for an impoverished Frank Gumm, who would later become the father of famed superstar Judy Garland.
