The McNeely-Strachan House, also known as Salisbury Academy, is a historic home located at Salisbury, Rowan County, North Carolina. It was built about 1820, as a two-story, frame dwelling. It was remodeled in the 1850s to add its distinctive two-tier flat roofed front porch. The porch features a five bay ornamental cast iron arcade in a grapevine pattern. The roof was modified to the hipped roof form and exterior chimneys rebuilt in 1911. The interior has Federal, Greek Revival, and Late Victorian-style design elements. The building housed the Salisbury Academy girls' school from about 1820 to 1825.[2]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1972.[1] It is located in the Salisbury Historic District.
