The Greenlaw House in Franklinton in Washington Parish, Louisiana was built in 1906. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1998.[1]

It is a one-and-a-half-story Queen Anne-style house with characteristic massing and textures. It has a turret and a wraparound gallery with bracketed Eastlake-style columns.[2]

Edward Runnels Greenlaw, a businessman in sawmills and railroads, had the house built for his parents, Civil War veteran Captain Lawrence Dade Greenlaw and Dora Runnels Greenlaw, a poet.[2]
