Built in 1841, The Pass House, was the first residence to Robert Murdaugh, a local attorney, & his family. It was occupied by Union Troops from 1862 to 1865. Federal forces required residents to obtain a written Pass to travel across the Elizabeth River and beyond. These passes were issued from the English Basement and thus the name “Pass House” was derived.
The Pass House has since been the home and office of many residents and businesses. The location & design of this large property lends itself to a variety of uses. The City of Portsmouth mixed-use zoning of H.L.O. (Historic Limited Office) allows the owner to live and operate a business in this home. In the late 1970s, the property was restored and used for medical offices.
The current owners purchased the property in 1998 and remodeled the property back to a residence and photography studio. The City of Portsmouth approved a Use Permit for new business use for socials and entertainment. Over the years, the ground floor has been leased as office spaces for a variety of businesses.
