Shelton McMurphey Johnson House, Victorian house on Willamette Street in Eugene, United States.

The two-story residence features high decorative carved wood details, a large circular tower, and green exterior paint with detailed trim work throughout.

Built in 1887 for Dr. Thomas Shelton, the house burned down shortly after completion and was reconstructed in 1888 at a cost of $8,000.

The residence represents Queen Anne style architecture with its asymmetrical design, decorative elements, and prominent position overlooking downtown Eugene.

Visitors can tour the house Tuesday through Friday from 10:00 AM to 1:00 PM and weekends from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM by calling 541-484-0808.

The property changed ownership between three notable families - the Sheltons, McMurpheys, and Johnsons - before becoming a museum managed by a nonprofit organization.

Location: Eugene

Architects: Walter D. Pugh

Architectural style: Queen Anne style architecture
