In 1877, the Lanneau/Norwood House, a great architectural example of the Second Empire style, was built for Charles H. Lanneau as his private residence. It was built upon the former estate of Dr. Peter C. Edwards. The house was later acquired from the Lanneau estate by John Wilkins Norwood in 1907. Norwood was responsible for the addition of the kitchen, the enlargement of the front porch, and other changes that include the subdivision of the once 39 acre parcel that originally stretched to McDaniel Avenue with access from a large circular driveway. In 1945, J.W. Norwood died and left the house to his daughter and son-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. Sapp Funderburk. The son of Mr. and Mrs. Funderburk, George, and his wife, Ann, are the current owners of the Lanneau/Norwood House.
