Sherrod Farm is a historic plantation house located near Hamilton, Martin County, North Carolina. The main part of the "L"-shaped dwelling is a two-story, five bay, single pile, Federal style center-hall plan frame dwelling dated to the first quarter of the 19th century. The one-story pedimented Ionic order portico was added about 1843 and is in a vernacular Greek Revival style. The two-bay one-story Georgian rear ell was raised to two stories in the late-19th century.[2]
