Description
The ca. 1887 David Jones House is a two and a half story Second Empire style brick building.
It stands on high ground on a triangularly-shaped lot at the intersection of Tuckaleechee
Pike (Tenn. 73) and Jones Avenue in Maryville, Blount County, Tennessee. The three acre lot
is bordered with hemlock, dogwood, redbud, and service, affording privacy from the street.
The irregularly-shaped house has a straight-sided mansard roof covered with slate tiles and
features a projecting central pavilion marked by molded copper quoins painted white. A band
of brick corbeling trims the roof eaves on all sides of the house.and pavilion. Windows are
rectangular 1/1 light double hung sash with flat decorative molded copper hood molds. The
single-leaf entrance of the facade is located in the pavilion and decorated by a pediment
surround head. Additions, dating to the mid twentieth century, are located to the rear and
northwest side elevation and do not significantly affect the integrity of the David Jones
House.
