Broad Kenan Historic District
Wilson, NC

The C. W. Stokes House, circa 1925, was designed by architect, S. B. Moore for Stokes, a Wilson clothing merchant.  It is a clipped-gable, brick-veneered bungalow with a porte-cochere, one and ½ story with a brick-veneered first floor and a stuccoed upper story. 

This house has been rewired, equipped with central air and heat ready for unit installation, and the plumbing has been roughed out ready for the fixtures to be installed.  It is zoned B-1 and located in the historic commercial downtown.  The house is surrounded by a professionally landscaped park, the newly renovated public library and BB&T’s seven-story twin towers.  Perfect location for a business that wants to showcase Wilson’s finest in historic tradition.

The house qualifies for the Historic Tax Credits.  Wilson is a quaint southern town with a population of just over 50,000.  Wilson’s location is 40 minutes to Raleigh, an hour to the Raleigh-Durham International Airport, two hours to the beach and five hours to the mountains.
