The home that is now The Burke Manor Inn, a historic North Carolina bed and breakfast, has been meticulously restored to its original 1906 grandeur as designed by the Cone family and later enhanced by the Burkes.
Originally owned and built on the 303 Burke Street site by Clarence Cone, a textile magnate (Cone Mills), the Gibsonville, NC home was sold to J.W. Burke in 1911. Four generations of Burkes resided in the house until the home was sold to the Brady Family in 1999 who had the vision to develop it into a fabulous Inn. The Inn is named in honor of its previous, long time owners, Mr. & Mrs. J.W. Burke, who were outstanding citizens in our community, county and in the state of North Carolina.
The restoration was carefully executed to preserve the integrity of the original home while creating luxury accommodations. Work began in June 1999 and by Christmas of the same year, the inn served its first dinner. Immediately, the standard of excellence was set and the Inn was on its way to becoming one of the top inns in NC. With all the modern conveniences that guests have come to expect from rated hotel lodging in the privacy and personalization of an elegant bed and breakfast. Today, Lil and Lori welcome you to the inn and will be honored to present you with the best the hospitality industry has to offer.
