The Charles Lang Freer House, at 71 East Ferry Avenue in Detroit, Michigan, is a single-family detached home in the Shingle style, designed by Wilson Eyre. It was originally built for industrialist and art collector Charles Lang Freer, whose gift of the Freer Gallery of Art began the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, DC. The house now houses the Merrill Palmer Skillman Institute of Child & Family Development of Wayne State University and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1971.
