Samuel Rockwell House, Federal and Greek Revival residence in Milledgeville, United States.

The Samuel Rockwell House is a two-story Federal-style house with Greek Revival columns and a pediment, built in 1838. It has eight rooms, two foyers per floor, and a spiral staircase. The exterior was originally light yellow with Charleston green shutters, and the property includes a carriage house and slave quarters at the rear.

Colonel Samuel Rockwell, an attorney from Maine, commissioned architect Joseph Lane to build this house in 1838. The construction took place when Milledgeville was a prominent administrative center and wealthy families were establishing grand residences.

The house was at one point the summer residence of Herschel Vespasian Johnson, who later became Governor of Georgia; he died in 1880. It is now a private home, so the rooms are not open to visitors. The property also includes a carriage house and slave quarters at the rear.

The house stands in Milledgeville, the Georgia capital when it was built in 1838. It is now a private home and not open to visitors, so it cannot be toured or booked for stays. Its two floors are joined by a spiral staircase, and the property also holds a carriage house and slave quarters at the rear.

The cast iron fence reportedly cost about $2,600, slightly more than the roughly $2,500 spent on the house itself. An urban legend holds that Colonel Samuel Rockwell suffered a heart attack upon hearing the fence's price. The house is now a private home.
