George and Elsie Mattis House

The George and Elsie Mattis House, located at 900 West Park Avenue in Champaign, Illinois, is a remarkable example of Georgian Revival architecture, designed by local architect George Ramey and built in 1926. Originally constructed around a Queen Anne house from 1893, the extensive redesign resulted in a new building that features elegant brickwork, quoins, and a distinctive slate hip roof with pedimented dormers. The house's grand entrance is adorned with pilasters and a detailed entablature. Recognized for its historical significance, it was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2010, making it a noteworthy destination for tourists and researchers interested in architectural history.
