Description

AN OPPORTUNITY TO BUY ONE OF NORTHEAST ALABAMA’S MOST HISTORIC HOUSES

The Noble Cottage was built in 1887 as a guest cottage by Samuel Noble, one of the founders of Anniston. The house remains as one of the rare surviving grand residences from Anniston’s early period of development, a time where it earned a reputation as the “Model City of the New South.” Renowned Alabama architectural historian Robert Gamble cited The Noble Cottage as one of the state’s notable examples of the Queen Anne architectural style, typified by the use of sophisticated architectural details intended to evoke a handcrafted flavor, and by the use of contrasting materials and colors in walls and roofs – in this case sandstone with wood shingles above.
