Part of the Selma Old Town Historic District. The district contains a collection of beautiful old homes on portions of 59 blocks. Of the 43 mainly residential blocks, 67 percent, or 450 structures, were built before 1910. This home is in the Fairoaks Square section of the district. According to Ruralswalabama.com:
Once a gracious turn-of-the-century neighborhood, many of the homes here were close to condemnation when purchased by Circle “S” Industries, Inc. in 1980. In all, 12 Victorian cottages were renovated in the area. Built between 1870 & 1920, the varied architecture includes Italianate, Carpenter Gothic & Greek Revival. The exteriors were authentically restored & the interiors, while adapted to contemporary living, retain many original features. This project has received national acclaim from preservationists and serves as an example of commitment to the protection of the heritage of this country. It received a 1983 Honor Award from the National Trust for Historic Preservation.
