Built by Charles Redding in 1908, the house is built in the Greek Revival style, with plenty of small, gorgeous details that people don’t often see in current architecture. In 1984, the house was placed on the National Register of Historic Places. Some of the things that visitors love about the Redding House are the custom millwork, masterfully painted art murals, and a whopping ten fireplaces. The house is a look into the historic past of Biloxi. You will all be amazed at just how well preserved the century old masterpiece truly is. From the hardwood floors to the artwork, it remains one of the best made and most beautiful places to see in the entire city.
