About The Brown House: Gatherings + Gallery

The Brown House offers the entire first floor of one of Raleigh’s grand turn-of-the-century homes for meetings and events. The 1,600 square foot space can comfortably accommodate up to 60 people, and is conveniently located on Raleigh’s historic Hillsborough Street within walking distance of N.C. State. The restored home features a wide front porch, original fireplaces, chandeliers and crystal doorknobs, and beautiful original windows and glass throughout. Updates include central air and heat, a warming kitchen, and a 10 kilowatt solar array that provides nearly 100% of the Brown House’s electrical needs. The Brown House is a perfect space for events of all kinds, including meetings, bridal and baby showers, engagement parties, fundraisers, cocktail events, and so much more. The Brown House is a historic home once owned by the Brown family, founders of one of Raleigh’s oldest continuously-operating businesses, the Brown-Wynne Funeral Home. Built by ‘Fab’ Brown in 1917, the home was owned and lived in by the family until 1975, when it was purchased by the Adams Terry Realty Company. Adams Terry provided stewardship of the house until 2021, agreeing to a sale once the preservation and rejuvenation of the house was assured.
