Newbold–White House is a historic house in Hertford, Perquimans County, North Carolina.

The brick house was built in 1730 by Abraham Sanders, a Quaker who purchased the property in 1726. His plantation on the Perquimans River produced corn, cotton, wheat, flax, indigo, tobacco, rice, and wood products. It is the oldest house in North Carolina that is open to the public. The brickwork is laid in Flemish bond.[2][3]

The house was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1971.[1]
