Hoyle Historic Homestead
Hoyle Historic Homestead, Late 18th-century house museum in Dallas, Gaston County, United States.
The two-story Hoyle Historic Homestead displays German-American architectural elements with heavy timber frame construction, vertical braces, and log infills throughout its structure.
Peter Hoyle acquired 800 acres through land grants in 1754, establishing what would become one of the earliest European settlements in Gaston County.
The interior layout features a traditional German-American four-room plan on the first floor and three rooms upstairs, with preserved walnut-paneled partitions.
The property includes nine acres of land with a brick well house and frame smokehouse, offering visitors insights into 18th-century agricultural life.
The homestead housed the first federal post office in Gaston County, operated by Andrew Hoyle who accumulated 19,000 acres by 1846.
