The Wright–Kilgore House is a historic residence in Greenville, Alabama, United States. It was built around 1850 for planter and state legislator Robert Wright. The house is a one-story Vernacular building with Greek Revival details. The recessed front porch was originally supported by round wood columns, but have been replaced with square brick piers. The five-bay façade has a central entry surrounded by sidelights and a transom. On the rear, a small addition and shed roofed porch were added in the early 1900s.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.[1]
