Somerset Villa, also known as the Julian S. Carr House, was a Queen Anne Revival mansion in the Downtown East Neighborhood of Durham, North Carolina.

[1][3] In 1888, Carr hired the architect John B. Halcott and the contractor William Carter Bain to construct an ornate villa on the grounds where Waverly Honor stood.

"[4] It included a large turret on the northeast side of the house that was capped by an ornate copper weathervane and a two hundred and twenty-foot veranda.

[1] The interior of the home featured stained glass windows, painted ceilings, carved mantels, a stairway platform inlaid with medallions of white holly, mahogany rosewood, and ebony, and floors made with French mosaic tile.

[2] Somerset Villa was Carr's city dwelling, as he also owned a country estate in Hillsborough known as Poplar Hill.
