The Spencer Buford House is a property in
It was a two-story brick side Side passage plan farmhouse built c.1820. It is unusual in Williamson County for the side passage plan. Its "doorway displays excellent Federal detailing."[3] It was built of bricks made by slaves in kiln on the farm.[4]
Besides the house the property included one non-contributing building. The listing was for an area of 6.4 acres (2.6 ha).[1]
The property was covered in a 1988 study of Williamson County historical resources.[2]
In November 2015 the house was evaluated as having lost its historic integrity, because it had been altered with "unsympathetic" additions that subsumed much of the original house, and yet lost the interior details in the original portion retained.[4]
It was removed from the National Register in 2015.[5]
