Melrose is a 15,000 square feet (1,400 m2) mansion, located in Natchez, Mississippi, that is said to reflect "perfection" in its Greek Revival design.

The McMurrans spared no expense as the windows, doors, cornice moldings, stairways and floors are made out of the finest woods.

[6] Elizabeth and George Davis purchased Melrose in 1865 as a result of Union soldiers occupying their town home, Choctaw, during the Civil War.

As a result, hundreds of photographs were taken of the property and material samples were saved that are invaluable sources of information to curators today.

The central and back hall provide a fine example of painted floor cloth that is original to the house, and another feature is the punkah found in the dining room.

Melrose along with Fort Rosalie and the William Johnson House form the Natchez National Historical Park.
