Harvey Wells House, National Historic Residence in Wellston, Ohio, United States.
The Harvey Wells House stands prominently on A Street Hill, featuring Renaissance Revival and Italianate architectural elements with a sandstone foundation and weatherboarded exterior walls.
Built in 1883 by Wellston's founder Harvey Wells, the residence underwent reconstruction after a fire in 1888 and gained National Register of Historic Places status in 2009.
The property transformation into a historic house museum represents the preservation efforts of local communities to maintain significant architectural heritage in Ohio.
The residence received substantial restoration funding through a state budget allocation of $100,000, enabling comprehensive renovations of both exterior and interior spaces.
Local businessman Jerry Bobst donated the property to Wellston city, initiating a multi-phase preservation project that saved this nineteenth-century architectural landmark.
