Douglas Ellington House, Historic residence in Asheville, United States.

The Douglas Ellington House features a brick cottage section with a wood-shingled hip roof, a stone central block, and a traditional log cabin.

The property was constructed in 1926 by architect Douglas Ellington, who received international recognition for developing naval camouflage patterns during World War II.

The residence combines architectural elements from Ellington's civic projects, including materials from notable structures like the Asheville City Building and First Baptist Church.

The eight-acre property at 583 Chunns Cove Road accommodates small outdoor weddings and events, with a one-bedroom cottage available for guest stays.

The entire house was constructed without machinery or blueprints, using only manual labor and incorporating architectural remnants from other local buildings.
