The Martin House is a historic house located at 707 10th Avenue in Fulton, Illinois. The Italianate house was built in 1855, when the style was becoming popular nationally. The house features a hip roof with bracketed eaves, tall windows, and a bay window on the east side, all distinctive Italianate elements. A wraparound front porch, a Queen Anne element, was added circa 1898. A 1908 renovation of the entry hall and dining room added Eastlake elements to the former and gave the latter an Arts and Crafts design. ^[2]

The house was added to the National Register of Historic Places on December 22, 2014. ^[1]
