Ricketts House, also known as the Stevens Residence, is a historic home located at Huntington, Cabell County, West Virginia. It was designed in 1924, and built in 1925. It is a large (c. 16,000 square feet) stone dwelling with a complex, low pitched hipped roof punctuated by four large stone chimneys and with large overhanging eaves. The design is reflective of the Prairie School, with Tudor manor house influences. It is a significant and well-preserved work of the prominent Huntington architect, Levi J. Dean.[2]

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