Hubert H. Bancroft Ranch House, Historic adobe farmhouse in Spring Valley, United States.

The single-story adobe structure features an open veranda with square posts and gabled roofs covered in wooden shingles from 1856.

Built by Augustus Ensworth, the residence became home to historian Hubert Howe Bancroft in 1885, who expanded the property to 500 acres.

The building stands as the oldest Anglo-American structure in Spring Valley and now functions as a museum operated by the Spring Valley Historical Society.

Located at 9050 Memory Lane, the museum preserves artifacts and documents relating to the ranch house and local history of Spring Valley.

The house incorporates curved timbers salvaged from the Clarissa Andrews, a coal freighter that sank in San Diego Bay.

Location: San Diego County

Address: 9050 Memory Lane
