Samuel Hyde House, Historic residence in Madison Street, Seattle, US.

The Samuel Hyde House is a two-story brick residence featuring a portico supported by large Corinthian columns in the Neo-classical style. The main building is complemented by a separate brick structure at the rear that once served as a carriage house.

Built between 1909 and 1910, the house was designed by architect Charles Bebb of the prominent Bebb and Mendel firm for businessman Samuel Hyde. Its construction occurred during a period of significant building activity and economic expansion in Seattle.

For decades, this house served as the official residence of the Russian consul-general and held significance in the city's diplomatic community. Its closure marked the end of that diplomatic chapter for the property.

The house is located on East Madison Street in a quiet residential neighborhood and can be easily seen from the street. Visitors should note this is a private residence that can only be viewed from the exterior.

The grounds were laid out by the Olmsted Brothers, the firm that also landscaped the 1909 Alaska–Yukon–Pacific Exposition grounds on the University of Washington campus. John Charles Olmsted and the firm Bebb & Mendel designed the house itself in 1909–1910 for liquor magnate Samuel Hyde, who sold it six years later to concentrate on his coal investments.
