The Benjamin Wilcox House, at 315 The Alameda in San Juan Bautista, California, was built in 1858. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.[1]

It was designed by local builder George Chalmers in Gothic Revival style.[2] It is a clapboarded balloon-frame L-shaped house built with redwood floor joists and sawn redwood studs. It has split pillars with Tuscan-order capitals, somehow involving fleur-de-lis.[2]
