Roxboro Male Academy and Methodist Parsonage is a historic school and church parsonage located at 315 N. Main Street in Roxboro, Person County, North Carolina. The original main block was built between 1840 and 1854, as a two-story, single-pile, frame building with Greek Revival style design elements. A two-story addition with Italianate style design elements was added in the late-19th century. The house took on some Colonial Revival style design elements with the addition of a front porch and interior changes in that style. It is one of the oldest buildings still standing in the town of Roxboro and served as a Methodist parsonage form 1854 to 1915.[2]
The house was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.[1]
