         200 E King Street This beautiful historic home was built around 1744 for Andre Richard. Richard had bought the lot three years earlier. One year later, the house was sold to his son-in-law, Edmund Hatch. Hatch changed the house to a two-story dwelling and enlarged the plan of the original house horizontally as well. It was most likely remodeled yet again during the 1780s, by renter Thomas Hankins. In 1800, the house came under the ownership of King Luten. It was then that the lot tripled in size and the home tripled in value. In 1922 the house was purchased by Junius and Margaret Davis who had the house remodeled yet again, this time by Mr. Rudolph, an architect, and Frank Fred Muth, the contractor. The Hatch-Bruer-Davis house is the oldest home in Edenton. |
