Hallsboro Store is a historic general store located near Midlothian, Chesterfield County, Virginia. It was built about 1885, and is a two-story wood frame structure set on a concrete and brick foundation in a Late Victorian style. The store was operated by a succession of prominent Chesterfield County businessmen, and it served as a post office and general store for its community for many generations.
