Fisher Park, one of the oldest neighborhoods in Greensboro, NC is home to some of the most luxurious, beautiful, and historic houses in the state. The history of the neighborhood is as interesting as many of the homes located within it. One house, in particular, has such a storied and interesting history that it has drawn the attention of the neighborhood, the city, the state, and the nation as the house was revealed from the veil of kudzu, bamboo, and overgrowth over the past year. The home had been registered on the National Historic Registry in 1976 by then-owner Sandra Cowart, who was a very well-known local interior designer, and many people had no idea there was a mansion that stood on the middle of the property.
The story of the house had piqued local attention over the years and as new owners took possession the attention was heightened as the house was featured on the A&E TV show called “Hoarders”. As the home was cleared, inside and outside, the wonderful original character, detail, and craftsmanship was very much intact. One could look at the home and envision how incredible it looked at its height, as well as, how incredible it will look in the future as the new owners take on the huge task of restoring the home.
