Commanding a bluff-top position along South Broadway Street, The Parsonage overlooks Bluff Park, the Mississippi River, and downtown Natchez from one of the region's most distinguished vantage points — a distinction unchanged since 1852. Originally commissioned through the generosity of Peter Little of nearby Rosalie, The Parsonage was completed in 1852 as the official residence of Methodist ministers. Architect James Hardie — a Scottish immigrant also responsible for Homewood and St. Mary Basilica — engaged master bricklayer Osborne K. Field to produce a structure of exceptional architectural significance. A commanding example of Greek Revival architecture, The Parsonage also appears to be the first building in Natchez to exhibit Italianate detailing, visible in the distinctive arcaded b rick arches of the rear porch. A balustraded rooftop deck offers what may be the finest private overlook of the Mississippi River in the American South. Inside, bold Greek Revival millwork, ornate plaster ceiling centerpieces, and refined period details define the formal parlors flanking a central hall. The raised basement extends livability with a kitchen, dining area, family room, two bedrooms, and two full baths enriched by exposed brick and fireplaces. A two-story frame addition and a brick outbuilding — documented on an 1864 Union Army map — complete the property. In continuous Metcalfe family stewardship since 1893, the home carries a provenance extending to Betsy Ross through direct lineage. A contributing property within the Natchez On-Top-of-the-Hill Historic District and listed on the National Register of Historic Places, The Parsonage stands among the most architecturally significant homes in the American South.
