Eddleman-McFarland House, Victorian mansion in Downtown Fort Worth, United States.

The Eddleman-McFarland House is a Victorian mansion in downtown Fort Worth built with brick and sandstone construction. Inside, the rooms feature mahogany and oak mantels, coffered ceilings, and intricate parquet flooring throughout.

Built in 1899 for Sarah Ball, the house later passed to William Eddleman, founder of Western National Bank, and remained in his family until 1978. This ownership chain reflects the importance of banking and commerce in Fort Worth's development.

The house reflects how successful business families in Fort Worth chose to display their wealth through grand architecture in the Quality Hill area. These homes became symbols of the city's prosperity during the cattle and banking boom.

The building sits on a natural bluff with views overlooking the Trinity River, making it easily accessible from downtown Fort Worth. Visitors can tour the house today as it now operates as an event venue for celebrations and special occasions.

The house retains many of its original architectural elements from the 1800s, making it a rare example of Victorian construction that has remained largely unchanged. This authenticity allows visitors to experience directly how homes were built and finished during that era.
