Oak Manor plantation house (ca. 1860) near Livingston, Sumter County, is another variant on the so-called "I" type plantation house. It is fronted by a two-tiered front veranda and topped by a rooftop observatory. The home was documented by Historic American Buildings Survey in 1935, when this photo was taken. Today the house stands abandoned.
