It was a major house and roadside stop for travelers, an early plantation house, and later the home of Michael Paggi, an early prominent Austin businessman. It remained a private residence until 1967.","narrative":"Built partly before the Civil War on a bluff above the Colorado River in Austin, this one-story handmade brick house is a simplified version of Greek Revival design. It has a central entrance with pedimented side panels and a transom, a low gable roof, two end chimneys, and a symmetrical plan with two equal rooms off a central hall. Later additions include a rear ell and a separate three-room building that once held the original kitchen. The land belonged to Colonel Sterling W. Goodrich, who farmed a plantation with a grist mill, sawmill and cotton gin. Michael Paggi, an Italian-born businessman who ran an ice company, a soda water company and a wagon sales yard, bought the house in 1884, and his descendants lived there until 1967. The house is considered one of Austin's earliest surviving Greek Revival homes and was a stop for travelers. Vacant and vandalized, it was slated for restoration as offices.","period_of_significance":"Pre-Civil War","architect_builder":"Unknown","architectural_style":"Simplified adaptation of Greek Revival","criteria":[],"status_note":"Vacated in 1967 and condemned by the city as unsafe for habitation; vandalized and deteriorated.
