The Evens-McMullan House (also known as Magnolia Manor) is a historic residence in Greenville, Alabama, United States. It was built in the late 1860s by Holden Evens, a lumberman who specially selected the timber used in its construction. It was purchased in 1891 by Frank McMullen, a Greenville jeweler.

The house is two stories and follows the basic I-house form, but with a front-facing gable and a pair of one-story wings off the rear. The front porch has Victorian latticed supports and spandrels. The interior features a curved staircase in the entry hall. [2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986. [1]
