Kreischer House, Victorian mansion in Charleston, Staten Island, United States
The brick Queen Anne style mansion features tall chimneys, decorative railings, spacious verandas, and a prominent corner tower at 4500 Arthur Kill Road.
Built in 1885 by brick manufacturer Balthasar Kreischer for his son Edward, the property initially included a second mansion for his other son Charles.
The mansion's addition to the National Register of Historic Places in 1982 recognizes its architectural importance in Staten Island's Victorian-era development.

The mansion gained media attention in 2005 when its caretaker, connected to organized crime, committed a murder within the property.
