Furnished Prestigious Robert Lafayette Cooper House

Described by Mayor Bill Hughes as "The Crown Jewel of Murphy," this gem is located in Murphy, NC, a highly desirable vacation and second-home destination in the foothills of the Smoky Mountains. Now on the National Register of Historic Places, it was built by Robert Lafayette Cooper for his bride in 1889. Since his death in 1904, the house remained with descendants until 2003. The present owners then embarked on a restoration project that has become a genuine work of love.
