Galveston Island, TX

Lemuel and Julia Burr House, 1876

This elegant Southern town house, built for Lemuel and Julia Burr, is attributed to Nicholas J. Clayton, Galveston’s leading 19th century architect.
Combining a mixture of classic, gothic and Italianate styles, the Burr house commands attention with two entrances and a detailed east elevation overlooking a deep garden.

Love the architecture of this home!!! I was told that ceilings are painted blue to keep the ghosts away. Do you think that's true? V
