Located in Cashiers, Jackson County, North Carolina, the Zachary-Tolbert House (also known as the Mordecai Zachary House) is a two-story Greek Revival frame dwelling built between 1850 and 1852. The structure displays characteristic Greek Revival features including a low hipped roof and a central front portico extending two stories across five bays. A frame kitchen with two rooms was appended to the rear and connected to the main house by a covered breezeway in the 1920s. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places in December 1998, the house is now owned and operated as a historic house museum by the Cashiers Historical Society, showcasing a collection of hand-crafted plain-style furniture.
