The Hunt House is a historic residence in Griffin, Spalding County, Georgia. Also known at the Chapman-Kincaid-Hunt House, it was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1973 and removed in 2024. It was originally located at 232 South 8th Street.
It is a monumental Beaux Arts house that was built originally in c.1860 as an Italianate summer home for a rich south Georgia planter, W.W. Chapman.
It was remodelled into the Beaux Arts style by W.J. Kincaid, founder of a textile manufacturing firm in Griffin. Kincaid bought the house in 1874. His daughter, born in the house in 1875, married a Hunt and lived there until 1959.[1] The house was moved to 525 North Pine Hill in 1978,[2] apparently at 33.2621°N -84.3164°W.
