The Thomas U. Butts House, at 1214 3rd Ave. in Columbus, Georgia, was built in 1896 and was extensively renovated into Prairie School style in 1928.^[2] It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.^[1]

It is a two-story balloon frame house with a clay tile hipped roof and two exterior chimneys. Originally showing a weatherboarded exterior, the house's 1928 renovation covered the weatherboarding with brick laid in stretcher bond. It has a central entrance with a Classical Revival-styled porch.^[2]

It was built for W. I. Struppa, a purser who lived there until 1904. It was sold in 1908 to Thomas Usher Butts, "a wizard of the lumber business", who raised his family there; descendants occupied the home until 1959.^[2]

Its National Register listing was within a batch of numerous Columbus properties determined to be eligible consistent with a 1980 study of historic resources in Columbus.^[3]
