Description

Welcome to The Hayes House, one of the most iconic and beloved homes in Blowing Rock. Originally built in 1889 by a Morganton merchant, Ogden Edmondson, and purchased soon after by Henry and Lucinda Hayes, this Queen Anne Victorian quickly became a landmark of elegance and hospitality in the High Country. Operated by the Hayes family for years as a summer boarding house for the privileged set, its walls once offered quiet inspiration to none other than Margaret Mitchell, who spent a summer here while writing Gone With the Wind. Rescued from demolition in 1993, this home was relocated from Main Street to Green Street in 1995. A year later, it underwent a comprehensive restoration from the studs out, including a new roof, insulation, wiring, plumbing, HVAC systems, kitchen, and bathrooms, which were carefully upgraded to preserve the home’s historic integrity while providing modern comfort. Inside, you’ll find 3 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms, with nearly all of the original woodwork preserved: White Pine floors, Curly Maple wainscoting, custom trim, and beadboard walls and ceilings. There are 6 fireplaces (4 with ventless gas logs, 2 are inoperable), original glass and stained glass windows with storm panes, and a modern kitchen with a gas range. A bonus area on 3rd floor. Heating and cooling include central dual fuel HVAC downstairs and gas heat A/C upstairs, with both systems updated about 10 years ago. Outside a gazebo with a fire pit and television, and a fountain were added to enjoy our mountain climate. A quick jaunt to Main Street allows for shopping and dining on the new sidewalk or to Bass Lake. This is not just a home—it’s a living piece of Blowing Rock’s story, thoughtfully preserved for the next generation. Whether you’re looking for a historic personal residence, a show-stopping second home, or a treasured piece of local heritage, The Hayes House is truly a rare, one-of-a-kind home.
