Weeks Homeplace

Unique opportunity for home, historic development or hospitality less than 1 1/2 hours from Raleigh!

Open House – Sunday, May 31st from 2 to 4pm

The Weeks Homeplace represents a rare residential enclave, and is also a commercial opportunity for developers, hospitality operators, and preservation-minded investors. The property includes eight structures:  Main House, Summer Kitchen,  Original Log cabin, Pie Building, Cabinetmakers shop, Storage building with loft, Small Barn, and Large Barn.  Sited on approximately 2.75 acres in a quiet, rural community, this property combines historic significance, existing infrastructure, and broad redevelopment potential — ideal for projects such as a boutique retreat, heritage lodging, agritourism venue, or event destination.

The Weeks Homeplace combines heritage value with redevelopment flexibility — a unique blend of old-world character and modern commercial potential. With key restoration efforts already initiated, clean water access, and a cooperative preservation environment, this property offers investors a one-of-a-kind opportunity to create a destination experience rooted in history, nature, and Southern authenticity.

The main Federal-style home was built in 1850 with an 1860 Victorian-style addition with original hardwood flooring.  The property includes the detached summer kitchen, log cabin, pie building (kept pastries in), cabinet maker shop, and utility barn with concrete floor.  The barn has the potential for two baths, one on the first floor and one on the second.  The primary bedroom is on the second floor with work started in 2022 that is currently 60% complete.  That building is on a slab with cement radiant heat floor and HVAC 36000 btu mini split.  There is no water or septic installed.

The Weeks Homeplace is under protective covenants held by Preservation North Carolina. Please contact Dawn Williams (919-832-3652 x221) to request a copy of these covenants.  As the property requires additional rehabilitation work, a rehabilitation agreement will be executed with the buyer.
