The Frederick Prentiss House was a historic house in Columbus, Ohio, United States. The house was built in 1890 and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.[1] The Frederick Prentiss House was built at a time when East Broad Street was a tree-lined avenue featuring the most ornate houses in Columbus; the house reflected the character of the area at the time.[2]

The house was built in 1890 and designed with Italianate and Queen Anne influences. It was built for Frederick Prentiss, president of the Hayden-Clinton National Bank. His family occupied the house until 1938.[2]
