Stevens from his father.","why_significant":"It is described as the only surviving ante-bellum farmhouse within the Town of Selma and a typical Eastern North Carolina ante-bellum plantation house. It is also tied to the end of the Civil War, when Confederate troops reassembled on its grounds after the Battle of Bentonville and held the last Grand Review of the army on April 6, 1865.","narrative":"Built around 1850 by Everitt P. Stevens, this white frame farmhouse east of SR 1003 in Selma is a traditional vernacular dwelling with Greek Revival door and window surrounds. It has a three-bay front, a center-hall plan one room deep, simple carved stair details and matching first-floor woodwork. One of its two original end chimneys has been removed, and rear additions from about 1940 and 1970 were made without destroying original fabric. The house sits on land Stevens received from his father in 1829 and once served as a stage stop. It is the only surviving ante-bellum farmhouse within Selma. In spring 1865, after the Battle of Bentonville, Confederate troops under General Hardee regrouped around the house, and the last Grand Review of the army took place there on April 6, 1865, with Generals Johnston and Hardee and Governor Vance attending. Several later outbuildings remain on the site.","period_of_significance":"c. 1850","architect_builder":"Unknown (built by Everitt P.
