The A. A. Garcelon House is an historic house at 223 Main Street in Auburn, Maine. It is a 2-1/2 story wood frame structure, designed by Jefferson L. Coburn and Sons of Lewiston, and built in 1890 for a A. A. Garcelon, a local merchant. It is one of Auburn's finest Queen Anne Victorians, with projecting bay sections on its two street-facing sides, and a projecting corner tower rising three stories, with a rounded roof. Bands of scallop-cut shingles separate the first and second floor, and also fill the gable ends of the projecting bays. Spindle-work porches on both floors adorn the main facade.[2]
The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.[1]
