Korner's Folly, Kernersville, NC - 22 MAR 2008
After talking with some local tourists about places to visit, I went in search Korner’s Folly in Kernersville.
This monstrosity turned out to be one of the most unique houses I've ever seen…the Southern version of the Winchester House. This place has 22 rooms, ceiling heights ranging from 5’6” to 25’ within three floors consisting of seven levels.
No two doors are alike (I had to walk sideways through one) and no two windows are the same.
It has 15 fireplaces, each with different ceramic tiles and several interesting mosaic pattern floors.
They had a build in ice box that was walled in brick between two rooms.
On the way back to Raleigh we pulled off the freeway, looking for a car wash and found this house that has a Giant Chair in the front yard:
...goes with February 8th entries: unique front lawns. (It was the size of a MINI Cooper.)
