The William Marshall Anderson House is a historic house in Circleville, Ohio, United States.[1] Built in 1865 as the home of William Marshall Anderson, the house has been ranked as a leading example of Gothic Revival architecture.[2] Walls of brick and wood, covered with an asphalt roof,[3] are decorated with many features of this style, including ornate wooden trim and ogive windows.[2] The house's well-preserved nineteenth-century architecture led to its placement on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.[1]
