Up next for our home tour sneak peeks is the Sue and Horace Snow Jr.

House! Another George Watts Carr, Tudor-Revival design, this home was built in 1928. The central chimney featured in this photograph was built with stone from the old Hillsborough Quarry, the same source for many of the stones used to build the Gothic-designed buildings on Duke's West Campus. Six months after the Hope Valley Country Club opened, Sue and Horace Snow Jr. purchased the lot for the home. The Snow and Carr family connections continue, as Horace's mother, Anna Exum Snow Lane, commissioned Carr to design the Snow Building in Downtown Durham, where Viceroy is located today. To see this and seven other of Hope Valley's earliest built homes, join us on our 2026 Home Tour on May 16th and 17th. Tickets can be purchased at www.preservationdurham.org/hometour We still need more volunteers to docent in 2 or 4-hour shifts on either day of the tour.
