Foscue Plantation House

The Foscue Plantation House built in 1803-04 is open for tours. The house stands at the heart of a sprawling plantation, reputed to have covered up to 10,000 acres on the Trent River between New Bern and Pollocksville. Today, this tastefully restored Old South plantation house stands tall as a majestic reminder of the era. During the War Between the States, it reportedly served as a hospital for the Northern troops, and was the only house left standing along what is now US Highway 17. The home is available for viewing on Thursdays from 10:00 am to 4:00 pm and by appointment. Contact Rozelle Wicks (910) 743-5531 or Karen Adams (252) 637-7232.
