It is described as the second oldest twentieth-century stone house in Brevard and part of a small group of stone buildings and structures erected there between 1915 and 1943. It is described as impressive and intact, and it contrasts with the frame, brick and pebble-dash houses around it.","narrative":"Built around 1918 on South Broad Street in Brevard, this two-and-a-half-story house is made of uncoursed surface stone and follows a modified T-plan under a wide clipped-gable roof. The roof sweeps down over the entrance porch and sun room in a manner reminiscent of English Arts and Crafts architects such as C. F. A. Voysey. A low stone wall with piers runs along the street frontage, and a large silver linden shades the front corner of the lot. Inside, a center-hall arrangement has French doors, oak floors and a stone fireplace. The house was built for Jennie E. Godfrey, a Brevard High School teacher, and was owned from 1939 to 1967 by members of the Barnette family. Its architect and stonemasons are unknown. It is regarded as the second oldest twentieth-century stone house in Brevard, and its English Manorial character set it apart from the late-Victorian, Colonial Revival and bungalow houses nearby. It remains a private residence.","period_of_significance":"ca. 1918","architect_builder":"Unknown","architectural_style":"Late 19th and 20th Century Revival: English Manorial","criteria":["C"],"status_note":"Still used as a single-dwelling residence; the interior kitchen area was altered in the late twentieth century, and a ca. 1970 garage and ca. 1990 garden shed were added.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:57:50.31645-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/opastorage/live/89/7184/47718489/content/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_NC/93001437.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/93001437/ab311f233c-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/93001437/ab311f233c-1600.webp","licence":"CC0","author":"Warren LeMay from Cincinnati, OH, United States","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Broad_Street,_Brevard,_NC_(32794778438).jpg\" rel=\"noopener\">Warren LeMay from Cincinnati, OH, United States</a>, <a href=\"http://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/deed.en\" rel=\"license noopener\">CC0</a>, via Wikimedia Commons","source_page":"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Broad_Street,_Brevard,_NC_(32794778438).jpg"},"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/47718489","wikipedia":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Godfrey-Barnette_House","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q19986618"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/north-carolina/transylvania-county/godfrey-barnette-house-93001437/"}
