Executive House, Historical residence in Florida, United States
Executive House is a two-story Mediterranean Revival house at 125 West Del Monte Avenue in Clewiston, Florida. It has a three-story square tower with an irregular floor plan at one corner, stuccoed wood-frame walls on a concrete slab foundation, and a roof combining cross-gable, hip, shed and flat sections. The flat roof is tar and gravel; the rest is asphalt shingles.
The Executive House was added to the National Register of Historic Places on February 5, 1998, recognizing it as a well-preserved example of Mediterranean Revival style in Clewiston and as a representative work of Palm Beach architect Clark J. Lawrence.
The house is named for its role as the residence of executives of the Clewiston Company, the firm that ran the local sugar industry. Its Mediterranean Revival design, with a three-story tower, set it apart from surrounding homes and signalled the status of its occupants.
The property is registered as a historical site and can be researched through public databases of protected places. Visitors should know that it is a private building, so viewing opportunities from the outside are limited.
The house's corner tower rises a full storey above the two-storey main block, giving the building an irregular floor plan. Its flat roof sections are finished with tar and gravel, while the pitched surfaces are covered in asphalt shingles. The frame is wood, clad entirely in stucco on a concrete slab foundation.
