The Carl Wilson House, a single-family residence in Palo Alto, California, was built in 1906 in the Colonial Revival style. Standing nearly two stories, it represents among the finest residential examples of its era in the city, distinguished by its complex design and striking color scheme. The house features unusual rounded forms dictated by bay windows, elements that are both difficult to execute and expertly realized through particularly well-done workmanship. It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since January 2, 1980.
