This large two-story wood-framed house, on a prominent corner site, has gabled bays protruding from a hipped block. A hipped gallery-like porch with Tuscan columns wraps around the two principal façades. It was built c. 1909 for Robert Lee Tillery, an assessor and notary public with an office in the county courthouse, and remained in the Tillery family until 1959. The Tillery House is contributing resource in the Fairmount-Southside Historic District. The second story awnings and carport shown here in the original photograph have been removed.
