The William Hayden House is a private residence located at 108 West Pottawatamie Street in the city of Tecumseh in northeast Lenawee County, Michigan. It was designated as a Michigan Historic Site and added to the National Register of Historic Places on August 13, 1986.[1][2]

The house, which was built around 1862, is a two-story, red brick villa built in Italianate architecture. The house is locally important as the former home of William Hayden. He was the longtime owner of the Globe Flour Mill, which was one of Tecumseh's leading commercial businesses in the second half of the nineteenth century. Hayden moved to Tecumseh around 1857 and purchased the mill. While his house was typical of other houses in the area at the time, the Hayden House is recognized for its elaborate detailing.[2]
