Josh's 9 AM inspection of a 170 year old home in Gold Hill

 

Black Cat Inspector Josh Hedges on his 9 AM inspection of this 170 year old historic home in Gold Hill for agent Perry Butler's client. Josh's inspection will include inspection and report to NC standards, radon test, mold inspection and mold testing. 

History of the House

History suggests the property was first associated with John C. Snuggs who was the Gold Hill Postmaster from September 1865 until July 1881. Mr. Snuggs also served in the Army as a Private.

The house served as both a post office and residence for Mr. Snuggs. The first floor of the house continued to be used as a post office well into the 20th century and also provided quarters for a shoe shop; the second floor was used for a school.

It was eventually acquired by Dr. B.T. Atkins (1877 – 1940) whose widow Dora Shaver Atkins, lived in it until the mid 1970’s.
