Bynum House, a historic residence in Monroe, Louisiana, built around 1895, exemplifies the Queen Anne and Eastlake architectural styles popular in the late nineteenth century. The structure showcases a gable-end main block with overlapping gables adorned with fishscale shingles and a prominent polygonal bay, while an L-shaped porch extends across the façade. Interior spaces display characteristic Eastlake detailing, including turned columns, spindlework screens, and cutout sun ray designs that demonstrate the meticulous craftsmanship of the period. The house is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
