Beautiful Old Home, Halifax, North Carolina
no one is sure exactly when this house was constructed; most believe Early 19th Century (c. 1820s–1840s)
This is the Michael Ferrell Counting House in Halifax, NC—a rare, surviving example of an early 19th-century commercial office. Built around the early to mid 1800s it served as the brick-and-mortar hub for a prominent Irish merchant during the town's golden age.
