There are original pine floors, ten foot ceilings and large porch overlooking the majestic view of the Paris Valley. There is a 19th Century bank barn with a stone foundation, in good condition, suitable for creative uses. The home was built by Peter Glascock, the architect of Punkin'ville, Virginia, now Paris, Virginia. Glascock was a sea captain who settled in Virginia after serving alongside the Marquis de Lafayette in the Revolutionary War. Lafayette visited Glascock in this house after the war. It was Lafayette who renamed the village "Paris", and then chose the name La Grange after his own Chateau de la Grange outside of Paris, France.
