Hood–Anderson Farm


The Hood–Anderson Farm is a historic home and farm and national historic district located at Eagle Rock, Wake County, North Carolina, a suburb of the state capital Raleigh. The main house was built about 1839, and is an example of transitional Federal / Greek Revival style I-house. It is two stories with a low-pitched hip roof and a rear two-story, hipped-roof ell. The front facade features a large, one-story porch, built in 1917, supported by Tuscan order columns. Also on the property are the contributing combined general store and post office, a one-room dwelling, a two-room tenant/slave house, a barn, a smokehouse, and several other outbuildings and sites including a family cemetery.
In April 1999, the Hood–Anderson Farm was listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
