The James Buchanan Duke House, also known as Lynnwood and White Oaks, is a Colonial Revival home in Charlotte, Mecklenburg County, North Carolina. Designed by Charles Christian Hook, its original section dates to 1914 and was substantially enlarged in 1919. Its H-shaped plan links large 2½-story blocks with a hyphen of equal height, and two-story tetrastyle porticos mark both gable ends. James Buchanan Duke lived here during the last five years of his life, and the house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.
