The Corydon Wassell House is a historic house at 2005 South Scott Street in Little Rock, Arkansas. Built in 1882, it is a 1+1⁄2-story wood-frame cottage, with modest Late Victorian trim, and is architecturally typical for the neighborhood. It is nationally significant as the home of the doctor and missionary Corydon M. Wassell (1884-1958). Wassell was awarded the Navy Cross for his service during World War II, and his life was immortalized in the film The Story of Dr. Wassell.[2]
The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2000.[1]
