Horner Houses

The Horner Houses, located in Burlington, North Carolina, are two historic homes that reflect the architectural styles of the early 20th century. The Earl Horner House, built around 1921, is a charming two-story bungalow with a distinctive gable-roofed porch, while the Charles Horner House, constructed in 1924, showcases the Mission/Spanish Revival style with its stucco exterior and 66 windows. Notably, Earl Horner, who served as the mayor of Burlington for 25 years, adds historical significance to these homes. Both houses were recognized for their historical importance and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1984, making them a fascinating stop for tourists and researchers interested in local history and architecture.
