My First 'Find'

1106 N. Toombs St., Valdosta, GA

I thought it was a Sears Osborn. I submitted these pictures for review on Rosemary's Facebook group. I'll link that discussion here if I'm able to, and if not I'll copy pertinent information Update: Rachel believes this house is patterned off a Osborn (that is in itself a 'chicken-or-the-egg' type debate). One feature missing are the vents/slits in the front stucco portion of the columns. Its not surprising that this house was my first 'find' as its a unique design, especially for south Georgia. Notice the wood brackets that complete the decorative columns. I have not been inside this house to search for any evidence and Lowndes County tax records are incomplete due to a fire. I'm sure I'll revisit this in the future.
