Rutherford and Martha Ellis House

The Rutherford and Martha Ellis House at 543 W. Wesley Rd., NW, in Atlanta, Georgia is a Colonial Revival cottage that was built in 1939. It was designed by architect Philip Trammell Shutze to resemble a colonial house built in 1770 in Wiscasset, Maine.

The property has also been known as Loblolly Hill. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2009.

The house was deemed significant for its architecture and also for its association with Rutherford Ellis, a leader in Atlanta's business, university, and charitable non-profit realms.
