The Alexandre Latiolais House is a historic house located at 900 East Butcher Switch Road in Lafayette, Louisiana, United States.

The 1+12-story building is the result of two periods of construction. The first one, dated c.1790, produced a complete house of four rooms, with a front and rear gallery and an attic, in a typical French Creole layout. About 1827, the building was enlarged in a more modern Federal style with the addition of two rooms to the northern side, the continuation of gallery and the updating of all the woodworks. [2] [3]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on May 9, 1985. [1]
