The EDENTON COTTON MILL was formed in August of 1898, and quickly became a mainstay in the local economy. The building is a handsome example of the large industrial complex that was popular in North Carolina. The one million bricks used in its construction were made on site with machinery leased from Edenton Brick Works. Between 1899 and 1923 more than 70 homes were constructed next to the mill for its workers and supervisors, creating what is now referred to as the MILL VILLAGE. In late 1995, shortly after closing the mill, Unifi Incorporated, donated the 44 acre complex to Preservation North Carolina and the task of restoring the property began.
Today the EDENTON COTTON MILL and VILLAGE is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. 57 of the original 70 homes remain. 54 of those have been purchased by individuals or families who have lovingly restored them and are now enjoying the wonderful Edenton lifestyle.
The Edenton project has been an enormous sucess. An article in the April 1999 of Southern Living states, "....Once again this quaint historical hamlet hums with new life, not as a museum, but as a revived lived-in community."
The July/August 2007 issue of Cottage Living features the Edenton Mill Village as one of its top 10 choices of the year for cottage communities. To read the article please click HERE

Due to the Historical significance of the COTTON MILL, the project is considered a 'certified rehabilition' and as such is eligible for State and Federal Tax Credits.
A tax credit differs from a tax deduction. A tax deduction lowers the amount of your income that is subject to taxation. A tax credit provides a dollar-for-dollar reduction in the amount of taxes you owe. That's right off the bottom line!
