The Walter McDonald Sanders House is a historic house that forms the center of the Sanders House Center complex at Bluefield in Tazewell County, Virginia, United States. It was built between 1894 and 1896, and is a large two-story, three-bay, red brick Queen Anne style dwelling. A two-story, brick over frame addition was built in 1911. The house features a highly decorative, almost full-length, shed-roofed front porch; a pyramidal roof; and a corner turret with conical roof. Also on the property are the contributing limestone spring house, a frame smokehouse which contains a railroad museum, a frame granary, and an early-20th century small frame dwelling known as the Rosie Trigg Cottage, which houses the Tazewell County Visitor Center.[2]
The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2002.
