Susie Foster Log Home

Miss Susie Foster wanted a log house as early as 1915 when her cousin gave her a lot in Smithville (Dekalb County). It was not until 1946-50 that her house was built. The house was constructed of logs salvaged from older log homes that were in the Caney Fork River Basin prior to Center Hill Lake being built. The house is a mid-century interpretation of the popular Colonial Revival style and the exposed logs on the exterior and interior, original mantel, windows and doors, exemplify the 20th century Colonial Revival movement.
