The Calkins-Orvis House is a historic house located at 210 West Nichols Street in Welsh, Louisiana.
Built in 1901, it is a one-and-a-half-story Queen Anne-style house. It was listed for having "local architectural significance as a landmark in the turn-of-the-century residential heritage of Welsh. This status is based upon its unusual massing (most notably the distinctive treatment of its side gables) and its profusion of intricate shinglework."[2][3]
The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on May 8, 1998.[1]
