York-Gordon House, more accurately known as the Patrick and Mary Gordon house, is a historic dwelling located at New Bern, Craven County, North Carolina. It was built in 1771, as documented by a letter from Patrick Gordon to William Hooper. Early title research suggested that the house was much older and belonged to Susan York; she evidently lived in an earlier house on this site; her house was probably destroyed in the great storm of 1769. The 1771 house is a 1+1⁄2-story, five-bay, frame dwelling with a gambrel roof and Georgian style design elements. A Federal chimneypiece replaced an earlier Georgian chimneypiece in the early 19 century. The house is sheathed in shiplap siding over brick-filled walls, rests on a brick over ballast stone foundation and features a full-width, one-story shed-roof porch, which was added 1786, based on estate records.^[2]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973.^[1]
