They range from two-story homes with high ceilings on spacious lots to one-room log cabins set on small plots of land. If you want to see what life was like in an old North Carolina house before electricity and running water were available, visit some historical sites. For example, Old Fiddler's Green, near Reidsville, was built in 1770 for use by fiddlers traveling through the area looking for work. It is now a museum dedicated to western North Carolina's musical history. The oldest surviving house in North Carolina is called the Wallingford House and it is located in Chapel Hill. It was built in 1679 by William Wallingford, who was appointed governor of the colony of Virginia but never moved there because he loved his job as chancellor of the royal college at London so much that he didn't want to leave! The college awarded him a doctorate in law and began a long relationship with a future king of England - Charles II.
