Scott House, also known as Frederic W. Scott House and Scott-Bocock House, is a historic home located in Richmond, Virginia. It was built in 1907, and is a three-story, 40,950 square foot, Beaux Arts style mansion. The house is seven bays wide and is faced with a pale Indiana limestone. It features a central portico of four, giant Corinthian order columns and two Corinthian pilasters that dominate the highly formal, symmetrical entrance façade. On the interior, the first floor of the Scott House can be understood as an architectural museum, with rooms in many different styles. Also on the property is a Tudor-style, half-timbered carriage house (1902).[3]
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2007.[1]
