Circa 1850s- The Lakehouse

Location: 306 Louisville Main St., Louisville, TN

Someone is currently (as of December 2015) doing an extensive renovation job on this house. Here is a screen shot that I saved from Google Maps, which shows the house before the work began. See the pictures below for the transformation. It appears that a lot of the original wood and other materials may be getting replaced, which raises the question: when you're replacing the original materials with new construction, at what point is it not the original house anymore?

The last photo shows the back side of the house, from across the water. It was taken from Cox Road.
