William Julius "Judy" Johnson House is a historic home located at Marshallton, New Castle County, Delaware. It was built about 1925, and is a two-story, three bay, rectangular frame dwelling with a one-story front porch. It has a hipped and gable roof with dormer and is reflective of the American Craftsman style. Wavy asbestos siding was added to the home in 1939. Also on the property is a contributing two car garage. It was the home of Hall of Fame baseball player Judy Johnson (ca. 1900-1989), who played in the Negro Leagues between 1921 and 1937. Johnson purchased the home in 1934, and resided in it until shortly before his death.[2]
It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1995.[1]
