George Adderley House, Historic Bahamian residence at Crane Point, Marathon, United States.

The George Adderley House stands as a 30-foot by 21-foot concrete rectangle with centered doors and eight windows for natural ventilation.

Built between 1903 and 1905, George Adderley constructed this residence after immigrating from the Bahamas and purchasing 32 acres of land for 100 dollars.

The house formed the center of Adderley Town, where George served as an Episcopal lay preacher and held religious services for the Bahamian community.

Located at 5550 Overseas Highway, the house is accessible through Crane Point Museum and Nature Center, which offers guided tours of the property.

This residence stands as the only surviving tabby construction in Florida, built using a mixture of burnt shells, ashes, sand, and water.
