Mattie Midgett Store and House, also known as Nellie Myrtle Pridgen's Beachcomber Museum, is a historic home and general store located at Nags Head, Dare County, North Carolina. The store was built in 1914, and the house in 1933. The store is a two-story frame Outer Banks Shingle Style building with a hipped shingle roof. A one-story, hipped-roof, one-room addition was built in 1944. The store was moved to its present site in 1932. The house is a two-story, T -shaped, single-pile frame dwelling with steeply pitched gable roofs.[2]

The store houses the Outer Banks Beachcomber Museum, which features a collection of beach glass, feathers, shells, sand, bricks and bottles found on area beaches.[3][4]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2004.[1]
