H. D. Poindexter Houses are a set of historic homes located at Winston-Salem, Forsyth County, North Carolina. A large house was built between 1892 and 1894, and is a two-story, frame dwelling in the Queen Anne style. It features verandahs, balconies, ornamental shingles, and large medieval-like chimneys. Associated with the large house is a small Victorian cottage built around 1874. Both dwellings were built by Henry Dalton Poindexter, a prominent merchant. They were moved to their present location in December 1977.[2]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.[1] It is located in the West End Historic District.
