Historic Structure Report: Carl Sandburg Home National Historic Site, Connemara Main House
What a hell of a baronial estate for an old Socialist, Carl Sandburg (1878- 1967) remarked after purchasing Connemara in 1945. Originally called Rock Hill, Connemara is located in Flat Rock, one of the earliest and most-famous of the summer resort communities that have been a feature of western North Carolina since before the Civil War. Because so many of the community's residents, who were mostly part-time in the nineteenth century, were from or had connections to Charleston, South Carolina, Flat Rock has often been referred to as Little Charleston of the Mountains.
