One of the few surviving originally-residential structures along the once-predominantly-residential blocks of WCH between Five Points and the curve of Kent Street (originally Chapel Hill Road.) This house has been a rental and later some sort of institutional home. As of late 2013, Self-Help plans to move this structure somewhere to make way for its Kent Corner development.

The house was moved in early 2014 to a cleared lot around the corner at 713 Kent Street.  Before and after the move, the renovated house served as a base for Duke Chapel's Pathways Fellowship program.
