Isaac Mazyck III built this three story, stuccoed brick house c.1783 after the fire of 1778. He designed it with a hipped roof and a wide entryway adding the unusual feature of a side entry and hall running the entire length of the first floor. The drawing room located on the second floor extends across the complete front the of dwelling. The house eventually passed to his only child, Elizabeth LeSerurier Mazyck (Wilson), who rented the space out as offices and residential space. It remained in the family for over a century.

Photographer Charles N. Bayless, funded by grants from the National Endowment for the Arts, photographed and recorded the Carolina Lowcountry between 1970 and 1988. The South Carolina Project took place between 1977 and 1979.
