Massie House, also known as Oak Grove, is a historic home located at Falling Spring, Alleghany County, Virginia. It was built in two phases in 1825-1826, and is a double-pile, two-story, five bay, wood-frame house on a brick foundation in the Federal style. The main entrance features the original paneled double-doors ornamented with small Chinese and Gothic motifs, flanked by sidelights and topped by a segmental fanlight. It is the area's oldest formal dwelling.

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.
