Shirley Hall, also known as Devereaux House, is a historic home located at Virginia Beach, Virginia. It was built in 1940, and is a two-story, five bay, Georgian Revival style brick dwelling. The main block is covered by a hipped roof with balustrade. A gambrel roofed service wing connects the main block to a hipped roofed garage. The interior features an entrance hall with an original Virginia staircase, removed from the Hunter House in Princess Anne County (c. 1826). The house is set in a park like setting among mature hardwood trees and American hollies.[3]

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1999.[1]
