Bridge Street History Center Museum (Sudie Garland and David Lee Nutt House)

-A A +A
1879. 319 E. Bridge St.

The former Nutt House is a rare, late Greek Revival I-house, of two-story frame construction with a central hall and stone end chimneys. The front door with sidelights and transom, single-bay porch, projecting window hoods, and deep but plain soffits are elements of the style. A contractor named Evans built the house with East Texas cypress. Nutt was in business with his brothers Jesse and Jacob H., who donated the forty acres for the Granbury town site. The house was used as the town’s first hotel in the 1890s.
