About this House
Welcome to the Butterworth House, an extraordinary historic residence believed to date to circa 1820 and recognized as one of the oldest surviving homes in Columbus, Mississippi. Featured on the prestigious Columbus Spring Pilgrimage, this remarkable property is one of only two surviving dog-trot homes remaining within the Columbus city limits—a distinction that makes it a truly rare piece of Mississippi history.
Beautifully restored and thoughtfully updated, the home preserves the character and craftsmanship of its original log cabin construction while offering the comfort and luxury expected today. The original dog-trot design, built as two log rooms separated by an open breezeway, remains the heart of the home, blending seamlessly with later additions that create an impressive 3,157 square feet of living space.
Situated on one of the quietest and most desirable streets on Columbus’ historic Southside, the home welcomes you with a full-width Southern front porch complete with a porch swing, a custom-built stained-glass front door, and handcrafted shutters that reflect the home’s timeless elegance.
Inside, original hardwood floors flow throughout the home. The spacious family room features soaring vaulted ceilings, while three fireplaces—including both gas and wood-burning—provide warmth and character. The oversized primary suite offers built-in cabinetry, its own fireplace, and a beautifully renovated spa-inspired bathroom. An additional renovated hall bath and convenient half bath complete the home’s functional layout.
Designed for those who love to entertain, the chef’s kitchen features premium KitchenAid appliances, a gas range, butcher-block island, and generous workspace. Multiple indoor and outdoor gathering spaces—including a large rear deck and back patio—make entertaining effortless.
The professionally landscaped backyard is fully enclosed by a privacy fence and includes a charming garden shed, providing additional storage, workshop space, or the perfect place for gardening enthusiasts.
