Merrimon-Wynne House, Greek Revival residence in downtown Raleigh, United States.

The Merrimon-Wynne House features a cross-gabled roof, weatherboard exterior, and ornate Stick Style porch with decorative elements from 1875.

Senator Augustus Summerfield Merrimon constructed this residence in 1875, which later served as Wynne Hall dormitory for Peace College until 1934.

The house stands at the birthplace of Dr. Jane McKimmon, who led education initiatives throughout North Carolina in the early twentieth century.

The property includes separate spaces for ceremonies and receptions, along with a carriage house that serves as a dining and dancing area.

The building was relocated from North Wilmington Street to its current location at Blount and Polk streets in 2008, maintaining its historical status.
