James Carnes House

James Carnes House, also known as "The Myrtles," is a historic home located at Bishopville, Lee County, South Carolina. It was built about 1836, and is a two-story, Greek Revival style frame house. It has a gable roof, weatherboard siding, brick foundation and stuccoed exterior end brick chimneys. The house features a large, two-story, pedimented portico on the front façade, with four larger square, frame columns with Doric order motif capitals. A large 1+12-story addition was added to the rear about 1900, when the house was made into a boarding house.

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.
