The William B. Willis House, commonly known as Sipsey, is a historic house in Eutaw, Alabama. The one-story wood-frame house was built c. 1835. It is built in the Greek Revival style, atop a high brick foundation. A pedimented Doric portico spans the main entrance in the center of the five-bay main facade. The house was relocated in 1978 from 17 miles (27 km) northwest of Eutaw in order to preserve it.[2] It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on September 22, 1983.[1]
