Cedar Grove Plantation (North Carolina)


Cedar Grove Plantation is a historic house located in Huntersville, North Carolina. It was the home of James G. Torrance, a Planter living in central Mecklenburg County. It is currently privately owned, and is closed to the public. The plantation was named for its location in the midst of a grove of Cedar trees.
== History ==

Cedar Grove Plantation was built in 1831 by James G. Torrance. Torrance was the son of Hugh Torrance, a Revolutionary War veteran, who owned and operated a store of the site of the plantation in the late 18th and early 19th Century. Originally, Torrance built the home to showcase the Torrance family's substantial wealth (they owned well over 100 slaves, and thousands of acres of land). But the home soon became a necessity for Torrance's ever growing family.
The Plantation's main crops were cotton and corn, as well as other foods that would have been needed to feed the Torrance family and their slaves. When James died, he left the plantation to his third and final wife, Margaret Allison Torrance.
The House is noted for its classic beauty, and its combination of both Federal and Greek Revival architecture.
