There are homes… and then there are stories. The Marshall-Jay House, dating back to the late 1800s, is more than just a property—it’s a piece of High Point and Quaker history. Set on approx. 0.65 acres, this two-story home was once the residence of Allen Jay, a nationally recognized minister active in post-Civil War reconstruction efforts. Known locally for its connection to the Underground Railroad, with attic access still present, it’s a chance to bring a story back to life. The home reflects traditional Quaker architecture and historic character. Fire-damaged and sold as-is. Brand new furnace. Preservation and rehabilitation easements apply. If you have vision, appreciation for historic homes, and a passion for preservation, this home is for you! There is a preservation and rehabilitation easement on the property which are attachments.
