A historic house can be a stately home, the birthplace of a well-known person, or a house with an interesting history. Houses were first thought of as historic rather than just interesting, during the early nineteenth century. Historic homes are often eligible for special grant award for preservation. What makes a historic home significant is often its architecture or its significance to the culture or history of an area. There are some organizations that offer services to research the history of your home and history of your home to the site, or search other's history. Historic homes may still be inhabited, and could not be confused with historic house museums
