The Frank Stewart House, also known as the Marian Stewart Bailey House, is a historic residence located in Washington, Iowa, United States. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1987.[1] Frank Stewart was a successful eastern Iowa businessman who was also involved in community affairs.[2] Among other responsibilities, he served as a Park Commissioner in Washington. His only child, Marian Stewart Bailey, also held that position. The house is a two-story, frame, Queen Anne with an asymmetrical design. The structure follows a simple cross-gable plan, but the facade projection is offset. Both gables of the main facade feature decorative millwork of diagonal patterns. There is also a wrap-around porch on the main floor with several porches on the second floor.
