The William Dixon Fowler House was built around 1901 in Spartanburg County, South Carolina by William Dixon Fowler.[2] The Queen Anne style house is believed to have been built from plans published by prolific residential architect George F. Barber. The wood frame house features a high level of carpentry and detailing. The house's chief features are a wrap-around porch, a porte-cochere, and a second-story turret embedded in the slope of the main roof. A contemporaneous smokehouse is also considered a contributing feature.[3]

The Fowler House was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on February 8, 2012.[1]
