Marion House[2] and Marion Brothers Store also known as Jubal E. Marion—Richard Nathaniel Marion House and Oakcrest, is a historic home and general store located at Siloam, Surry County, North Carolina. The house was built over three periods in 1861, 1895, and 1913. It is a two-story, three-bay, double pile, Classical Revival, Southern Colonial style frame dwelling. The 1913 remodeling was by prominent Winston-Salem architect Willard C. Northup. It features a two-story, Ionic order central portico and a one-story porch with Tuscan order columns that nearly encircles the house. The Marion Brothers Store was built about 1894, and is a two-story, brick commercial building. The property also includes the contributing wash house/smokehouse, a garage with a tool room/shop and a pump room, a fish pool, a carbide house, two chicken houses, a barn, a corn crib / granary, and two tobacco barns.[3]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2012.[1]
