The Snyder House in Kalispell, Montana, also known as Howard House and as Welty House, is a "transitional Colonial Revival" style house built in c.1900. [2]

It is a wood-frame house that was probably built by stonemason Joseph C. Snyder, and its design is probably from a pattern book. It was argued to be "a fine representative example of transitional Colonial Revival styling on Kalispell's west side." [2] Its NRHP nomination states:

While the overall massing and cross-gabled form of the house are distinctive of the Colonial Revival genre, numerous decorative elements clearly reflect late 19th century Queen Anne styling, including the turned supports with scroll-work on the almost-full-width front porch, the clapboard siding with decorative shingle work in the gable ends, the stained glass transoms, and the bay window. [2]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1994. [1]

At some point the dormers on the eastern elevation were extended, giving the house a more Plain-Traditional appearance than its original Queen Anne look.
