The Berta Sepúlveda House (Spanish: Casa Berta Sepúlveda) is a historic residence located in Sabana Grande Pueblo, the administrative and historic center of the municipality of Sabana Grande, Puerto Rico.[1] It was designed by Mayagüez-native self-made architect Rafael Bofill and built between 1926 and 1927 in a traditional vernacular style with elements inspired by the newly emerging Modern architecture, particularly the Prairie-style. Its most distinctive feature is its wide curved balcony with its Tuscan-style columns. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1994 and on the Puerto Rico Register of Historic Sites and Zones in 2000.[2][3]
