This exquisite colonial revival was drawn by Architect George Watts Carr, renowned architect of many of the homes in Forest Hills in Durham and several in Hope Valley. He was also the architect of Cape Fear Hospital. Restoration and repurpose was completed by his grandson Edgar watts Carr in 1998. At that time all mechanicals were brought up to code. Plaster walls refinished, copper gutters installed as per plan. Much more. The owners have been meticulous in returning this home to its original grandeur. There is much more to be said about this home as well as its historical significance. If the home is put on the register which it qualifies, there will be a 50% tax credit on annual property tax's.
