The Samuel Guy House was built in 1850 by Samuel Eldridge Guy. The house was the centerpiece of a working plantation and was located in Mansfield, Louisiana. The house remained in the Guy family for 150 years. The home is two stories and is of Greek Revival architecture and contains such features as an ornate, oversized front entrance and Greek temple dormers, which are unique to the area. It also contains a symmetrical floor plan featuring a central hallway flanked by two rooms on either side.
The house remained vacant for a dozen years and had significantly deteriorated due to neglect. The roof had failed in several places, several of the additions to the back of the house had caved in, the front porch structure was ruined, one front column had collapsed and the interior was in great disrepair.
Two suites and five elegant bedrooms all with private baths and Jacuzzi tubs, fireplaces, antiques, full breakfast and much more. Major credit cards accepted.
