The German Builder's House is a historic house at 315 East Central Street in Siloam Springs, Arkansas. It is a two story brick I-house, with a side gable roof and a rear wood frame addition, giving it an overall T shape. A porch with open veranda above spans most of the width of the main facade, with Queen Anne style turned posts and balusters, and a spindled frieze. The house was built c. 1880 by German masons from St. Louis who were working on a nearby school building. It is one of the finest brick I-houses in Benton County.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988.[1]
