Montrose is a historic mansion in Holly Springs, Mississippi, United States.
It is located at 335 East Salem Avenue in Holly Springs, a small town in Northern Mississippi.[1] [2]
The mansion was commissioned by Alfred Aaron Brooks (1802-1888), a plantation owner, as a wedding present for his daughter.[3] [4] It was completed in 1858.[1] [2] [3] It was designed in the Greek Revival architectural style, as a two-storey mansion with red bricks and white Corinthian columns.[4] Inside, there is a circular staircase with a niche.[4]
Later, it was home to the Holly Springs Garden Club, with an arboretum on the grounds.[2] [4]
The house may be toured during the annual Annual Pilgrimage and Home Tour.[5] The proceeds go towards the restoration of the mansion.[5] [6]
As a contributing property to the East Holly Springs Historic District, it has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since April 20, 1983.[1] It has also been a Mississippi Landmark since 1986.[3]
