Frank M. and Annie G. Covert House, Queen Anne residential building in Hyde Park Historic District, Austin, Texas

The Frank M. and Annie G. Covert House at 3912 Avenue G is a two-story home with irregular massing, a two-story wraparound veranda and masonry construction. Its Queen Anne form carries Romanesque and Classical Revival details, and it stands across from the Page-Gilbert House.

The residence was built in 1898 by real estate broker Frank Covert during a period when the Hyde Park neighborhood was developing. Between 1917 and 1945, it served as shelter for unwed mothers operated through an organization called House of the Holy Infancy.

The house's name comes from Frank M. Covert, the local real estate broker and auto dealer who completed it around 1898, and his wife Annie G. From 1917 to 1945, under the Sassman ownership, it was rented out to tenants including Robert Winslow and the House of the Holy Infancy, a home for unwed mothers.

The building sits along Avenue G within the Hyde Park Historic District, where sidewalks allow for easy viewing of the exterior. Since this is a private residence, visitors should observe the architectural features from public pathways.

The house sits at 3912 Avenue G, directly across from the Page-Gilbert House, another historic Hyde Park residence. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1990, and its period of neglect ended when Dr. John and Ann Horan bought and restored it.
