The Henry Mann House is a historic house in Albuquerque, New Mexico. It was built in 1905[3][4] by Henry Mann, who operated a market garden near Old Town with his brothers.[5] The house cost $2,700 and the contractor was Wallace Hesselden, who also completed the John Pearce House the same year.[4] The property was added to the New Mexico State Register of Cultural Properties in 1979 and the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.[2]

The house is a one-and-a-half-story brick building with modest Queen Anne elements. The house has a complex roofline, with a high Dutch gable over the main body of the house and smaller intersecting gables on both street-facing elevations. The lower gable ends are shingled and decorated with radiating spindles at each peak. The ground-floor windows are 1-over-1 wooden sash windows set in arched openings. The house also has shed-roofed front and rear porches with turned wooden posts.[5]
