The Guiberson House is a historic residence located in Winterset, Iowa, United States. Edwin R. Guiberson settled in Winterset in the late 1840s, and worked as a lot agent selling property after the town was platted. He also served a term as County Judge. Calib Clark, a local stonemason, is credited with building this house from 1861 to 1865.[2] The two-story structure is composed of locally quarried limestone that is laid in a random ashlar pattern. The five bay facade features entry ways in the second and fourth bays. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.[1]
