Sutton-Newby House is a historic plantation house located near Hertford, Perquimans County, North Carolina. It was built about 1745, and is a 1+12-story, four-bay, frame dwelling with a brick end and gable roof. It originally had both ends in brick. It features a full-width, shed roofed front porch and massive double-shouldered chimney. It is a member of the small group of 18th century frame houses with brick ends in northeast North Carolina; the group includes the Myers-White House and the Old Brick House. The Sutton–Newby House's brickwork is laid in Flemish bond. [2]

The house was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1974. [1]
