Hawkins-Hartness House is a historic house in Raleigh, North Carolina. It was built around 1880 in the Eastlake style. It houses the office of the Lieutenant Governor of North Carolina.

History

The Hawkins-Hartness House was built around 1880 for Dr. and Mrs. Alexander B. Hawkins. It is a 21⁄2-story, Eastlake-style brick dwelling with a four-story tower and numerous two-story projections. It features a one-story hip-roof Eastlake movement style front porch.

In 1928, the house was purchased by Annie Sloan Hartness, the wife of North Carolina Secretary of State James A. Hartness.

The house has been converted from a residence to a state office building, housing the office of the Lieutenant Governor of North Carolina.

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1972.
