Richard Ransom Gwyn, son of Elkin's founding father, Richard Gwyn, built the original portion of this house ca. 1873. The house was a traditional two-story frame dwelling, which faced Market Street. Shortly after the turn of the century, Alexander Chatham, Jr., purchased the house, moved it uphill from Market Street and turned it to face Gwyn Avenue. At the same time, he remodeled the house in the Neo-Classical Revival style. Visit house website for pictures. www.bitly.com/121gwynave Feel free to contact with any questions.
