Active Listings: 21
Inside Town Limits: 17

Inside town limits, a COA is required. Properties within Edenton's Local Historic District overlay need a Certificate of Appropriateness from the Historic Preservation Commission before any exterior alteration, addition, or demolition. Confirm both the overlay boundary and contributing vs. non-contributing status before placing an offer — the local overlay and the National Register district are not the same map. Federal and NC rehabilitation tax credits may apply to qualifying work either way.Read Chapter 1 of the Historic Brief →

How this list is built

Every active Chowan County residential listing with a stated year built of 1959 or earlier. 1959 is the closing year of the Edenton Historic District’s National Register period of significance, set in the district’s 2007 documentation; the Town’s own design standards defer to National Register contributing status rather than setting a separate year. Era bands follow the Town’s published glossary of architectural styles, not round decades. Listings with no year built, or a year built of 0, are excluded rather than guessed at. Year built is the MLS field as entered — round years on pre-1900 houses are often approximate, and effective year built after a renovation can differ meaningfully.
