The Weakley-Truett-Clark House, a.k.a. Fairfax Hall, is a historic mansion in Nashville, Tennessee.

Location

The house is located at 415 Rosebank Avenue in Nashville, Tennessee.[2][3]

History

It was built by Samuel D. Weakley, an early settler and surveyor, in 1802, in the Federal architectural style.[2] It was later passed on to his brother, Robert Weakley (1764–1845), who served in the United States House of Representatives from 1809 to 1811.[2]

In 1855, it was purchased by Ezekiel Truett, who changed the architectural style to Italianate and classical.[2] The two-story portico with columns were added then.[2] He also established Rosebank Nurseries, one of the oldest nurseries in the South.[2] Later, Rosebank Avenue got its name from the roses he grew.[2]

In 1933, a businessman named Sheffield Clark inherited the house.[2] In 1936-1937, he added bathrooms and two one-story wings.[2] On his mantelpieces, he displayed Civil War memorabilia.[2]

Heritage significance

The house has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places listings in Davidson County, Tennessee since April 13, 1989.[3][4]
