Swan House

Swan House is located at West Paces Ferry Road NW, Atlanta, Georgia and is approximately 20 miles from the city's international airport. This is a classically styled mansion built in 1928 for the Edward H. Inman family, who were heirs to a cotton brokerage fortune. Now members of the public can view the house and get a glimpse of how the family lived in the 1920s and 1930s.

The house is operated as a historic house museum by the Atlanta History Center and retains many of the Irwin family's original furnishings. Visitors can explore many rooms of this historic house including the foyer, breakfast room, hall, library, living room, kitchen, pantry and the bedrooms. The furnishings range from 18th century antiques through to 20th century pieces. Outside visitors can also wander round the grounds with its gardens and fountains.

Guided tours of the house are provided between 11am and 4pm Monday to Saturday and from 1pm to 4pm on Sundays. Tours can only be reserved on arrival at the house and therefore guests are advised to arrive early to ensure they gain a space. Also located at this site are the Margaret Mitchell House, where Gone with the Wind was written by the home owner in the mid 1930s.
