House Portraits

Waxhaw, NC. 2025

Downtown Waxhaw is an historic district with a number of unique homes.  Notice the door on the second floor of this home.  It opens onto the roof of the front porch.  I wonder if it ever served a purpose?  Such features are often referred to as Thomasson's.  The feature has been preserved and is now part of the art of the building.

  1. Did that door ever open onto a balcony? The bricks beside the door look slightly different to me. (The bottom part of wall, I mean).

    1. Thanks for looking. I'm not sure if there ever was a balcony. You're right about the bricks though. There might have been one, at some time.
