It sits on about one-third acre beside Interstate 40.","why_significant":"The nomination argues the house is significant under Criterion C as a well-preserved, rare example of Italianate architecture in Winston-Salem and the city's only surviving Italianate brick residence. It is also one of a handful of large houses left in a once-fashionable late-19th-century neighborhood. Its interior retains original mantels, stair, woodwork and plaster moldings.","narrative":"Built in 1884 on South Cherry Street in Winston-Salem, this two-and-a-half-story brick house is the city's only surviving Italianate brick residence. John Calvin Conrad, a leader in the Moravian community and a town commissioner, had it built. In 1904 he sold it to Henry R. Starbuck, a lawyer, judge and state senator who lived there until 1941. The house has a modillioned cornice, segmental-arch hooded windows and a projecting central bay that once held a three-story tower, shortened between 1912 and 1917. Its side walls show unusual brickwork, including mouse-toothing and recessed panels. Inside, the central-hall plan survives with original first-floor mantels, an open-string stair, plaster moldings and a ceiling medallion. Early rear additions joined the old detached kitchen to the house. Interstate 40 now runs past it in a deep cut, and the neighborhood's other high-style homes are largely gone. It later became a clinic and offices.","period_of_significance":"1884","architect_builder":"Unknown","architectural_style":"Italianate","criteria":["C"],"status_note":"Divided by the current owner into a medical clinic, a rented room, living quarters and professional offices; originally a single-family dwelling for most of its 106 years.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:57:50.168917-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/opastorage/live/75/7201/47720175/content/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_NC/90000792.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/90000792/6a532d911f-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/90000792/6a532d911f-1600.webp","licence":"CC BY-SA 3.0","author":"Jerrye &amp; Roy Klotz, MD","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:CONRAD-STARBUCK_HOUSE,_FORSYTH_COUNTY.jpg\" rel=\"noopener\">Jerrye &amp;amp; Roy Klotz, MD</a>, <a href=\"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0\" rel=\"license noopener\">CC BY-SA 3.0</a>, via Wikimedia Commons","source_page":"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:CONRAD-STARBUCK_HOUSE,_FORSYTH_COUNTY.jpg"},"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/47720175","wikipedia":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conrad-Starbuck_House","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q19461125"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/north-carolina/forsyth-county/conrad-starbuck-house-90000792/"}
