The John R. Commons House is a hilltop bungalow in Madison, Wisconsin, built in 1913 in the Prairie School style and finished in stucco. Designed by Cora Tuttle, who was not a formally trained architect but was the first woman to practice architecture in Madison, it was home to University of Wisconsin economist John R. Commons. It is a Madison Landmark, listed in the Wisconsin State Register of Historic Places, and was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.
