The Richard L. Cawood Residence was built in 1923 by Richard Cawood in East Liverpool, Ohio. Cawood was the president of Patterson foundry and owned a steel mill. He had an intense interest in architecture and design and often designed smaller houses.[2]

The design of the house evolved over ten years. Cawood included a tower, chapel, and Porte-cochère. The house is an example of Italian Renaissance architecture combined with Spanish eclectic additions.[1][2]

The house was added to the National Register of Historic Places in January 1988.[1]
