The Waitman T. Willey House, located in Morgantown, West Virginia, is a one-and-a-half-story brick residence built in 1839–1840 in the Classical Revival style. Its most distinguished feature is the front facade's pentastyle portico, composed of five fluted Doric columns supporting a high pitched triangular pediment. The L-shaped plan and neoclassical vocabulary reflect the refined taste of its original owner, Waitman T. Willey, a prominent lawyer, orator, and statesman of the era. The house was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.
