INC NEWS - Clapp-Ferguson

[Ken Gasch]

Preservation NC has been able to place the Clapp-Ferguson House up for sale.
Congratulation!!!  If you think you know a person interested in restoring
this historic gem, please forward them the following information on the
home. Whatever you do, do NOT tell them that this home is across the street
(Ottawa Ave.) from the home my family will be renovating to live in. You
don't want to scare them away.

_____________________________________________


      The Clapp-Ferguson House is a large two-story Victorian home with
craftsman details located on a prominent corner lot in the
Cleveland-Holloway Street Historic District. The neighborhood is adjacent to
Downtown Durham and is going through an exciting revitalization.

      The house stands out among the neighboring homes with its imposing
stone porch foundation with decorative mortar joints and grouped decorative
posts. The exterior also features a one-story wrap-around porch with a
standing seam metal roof supported by grouped decorative posts on stone
piers. The house is sided with molded wood siding and retains the original
multi-pane wood windows on the first floor.

      The house requires a complete rehabilitation including all new systems
and updates to the kitchen and baths. It is eligible for historic
rehabilitation tax credits.
