The Brick Gothic House is a historical residence located south of Albia, Iowa, United States in rural Monroe County. Built in the 1870s, it is a rare example of a Gothic Revival house located on a farm in southeast Iowa.[2] The 1½-story brick house features nine Gothic arch windows on the first floor and two on the attic level. A polygonal bay is located on the south elevation. The structure follows a T-plan, with the main entrance in the leg of the "T". A single-story porch is located in an inside corner, also on the south side. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1994.[1]
