The Watt-Groce-Fickhardt House is a historic house in Circleville, Ohio, United States. Located along Main Street on the city's eastern side,〔 it is a distinctive landmark and has been named a historic site. Circleville was platted in 1810 on a farm owned by Jacob Ziegler and Samuel Watt; later in the year, Ziegler sold his interest in the farm to Watt. With the community's rapid expansion, Watt sold more land; by 1820, only remained in his ownership. Using the money from the land sales, Watt built a new farmhouse in 1826;〔Owen, Lorrie K., ed. ''Dictionary of Ohio Historic Places''. Vol. 2. St. Clair Shores: Somerset, 1999, 1152.〕 two stories high, it is a brick structure with a stone foundation and a metal roof.〔(Watt-Groce-Fickhardt House ), Ohio Historical Society, 2007. Accessed 2010-09-16.〕 When completed, it was a typical hall and parlor house.〔 As Circleville continued to grow, Watt sold most of his remaining land in 1835; only remained after the end of that year. Becoming a leading local businessman, he made an extensive addition to the house in 1852; this new structure took the form of an I-house. A smaller addition, built in 1885, is a frame structure attached to the original portion of the house.〔 Today, the Watt-Groce-Fickhardt House remains a well-preserved example of antebellum architecture.〔 In 1985, the house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places,〔 qualifying because of its historic architecture and because of its connection to a later resident, John G. Groce, who was a leading member of local society.〔 ==References==
