Hubert Teer House

The Hubert Teer House, located in the picturesque Hope Valley Historic District of Durham, North Carolina, is a stunning example of Colonial Revival architecture. Commissioned in 1932 by construction magnate Hubert Teer and designed by architect George Watts Carr, this mansion features a striking two-story portico and a neoclassical entrance with a Palladian window. Set on a spacious 1.7-acre lot adjacent to the Hope Valley Country Club's golf course, the house has a rich history, having passed down through the Teer family and undergone remodeling in 1997. A charming miniature version of the house, originally built as a playhouse for Teer's daughter, adds a unique touch to the property, making it an intriguing site for both tourists and researchers interested in architectural history and family legacies.
