The James W. Finch House, known also as the Finch-Fleischer House, is a historic house in Monterey, California that is listed on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP).
Located at 410 Monroe St. in Monterey, it was built in 1870.[1] The house is significant as one of few surviving examples of early American architecture in Monterey, as opposed to the Spanish/Mexican adobe style of other Monterey buildings of the same era. The house includes Classical Revival stylings with other, eclectic stylistic features.[2]
The house was built by rancher and stovemaker James William Finch and by Charles Finch for their mother who lived in the house intil 1881; James and his wife lived there and extended the house, after. James' daughter Alma and her husband Charles Fleischer lived there later. A notable renter, later, was artist Charles Rollo Peters.[2]
The house was documented by the Historic American Buildings Survey in 1964.[3]
The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.[1]
