Best Continually Inhabited Historic Home

The Smith House

Otherwise known as the home of Boggy Creek farmers Larry Butler and Carol Ann Sayle, this white frame Greek Revival-style house has been home to Capitol-area farm families since the days of the Republic. The other two local historic homes that date to the same era (The Paggi House and the French Legation) have long been commercial buildings but the Smith house has been home to someone for more than 150 years.
