The Jenkins House is a historic home in Bastrop, Texas. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on December 22, 1978.[1] The Jenkins House started as a single-room log cabin and then was enlarged to a two-room log cabin with a "dog-trot" between rooms. A kitchen and dining "ell" was added in subsequent years, and finally, the dog-trot opening was enclosed as a hall, the house sided with clapboard, and a porch running the length of the building added to create its present Victorian appearance.[2]
