The Snowden House is a building in Waterloo, Iowa, United States. Local pharmacist William Snowden had it built in 1878 and it began housing the Waterloo Women's Club in 1922. [2]

Snowden House is a two-storey brick rectangular Italianate architecture structure, featuring a hip roof, shallow gable with a blind oculus on the main facade, bracketed eaves and full-length front porch. It has segmentally arched windows throughout, with hood moulds capping those on the front. The back wing is a later addition and the interior was completely rebuilt after a 1955 fire. [1]

The house was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1977. [1]
