Sunrise, Georgian mansion in Charleston, United States.
The three-story stone structure features a gabled roof with dormers, chimneys, and four Doric columns on its northern portico facing the Kanawha River.
William A. MacCorkle, the ninth governor of West Virginia, constructed this residence in 1905, which later gained recognition on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.
The building served as the Sunrise Museum, dedicated to science and art exhibitions, until 2003 when collections moved to the Clay Center for Arts and Sciences.
Located at 746 Myrtle Road in Charleston, West Virginia, the property remains under private ownership and does not permit public access to interior spaces.
The mansion incorporates an intricate cornice design that creates a visual effect of reduced size despite its substantial three-story elevation.
