The Marks House was built about 1847, and is a two-story, transitional Federal / Greek Revival style frame dwelling. It is the oldest surviving house in Albemarle. It was moved to its present site behind the Snuggs house in 1975.

The houses were restored in the 1980s and are operated as historic house museums by the Stanly County Museum.[1]
