The Simmons-Bond House, February 2008.

Simmons-Bond House was built in 1903 by the noted Georgia architect E. Levi Prater for James B. Simmons, a successful lumberman. The house, located in downtown Toccoa, Georgia across from the county courthouse, is representative of the frame Queen Anne Style Greek Revival houses built in Northern Georgia around the turn of the Twentieth Century. The main occupants of the house have been the James B. Simmons and Julius Belton Bond families.
