The Driskell–Martin House is a Greek Revival house in Plantersville, Alabama, and the oldest surviving high style residence in the community. Built in 1850 for planter and merchant Thomas Sanford Driskell by builders Nelson Mitchell and Massena Godwin, the two-story wood-frame house is five bays wide, with a two-story pedimented portico across its three central bays. Union forces used it as a headquarters during Wilson's Raid in April 1865. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1987.
