The Waddel Mansion is a historic house at 605 West 5th Street in Webster, South Dakota. Built in 1920 by William Waddel, a local lawyer, it was then, and still is, the largest house in the small community. The house has a symmetrical main block, with matching recessed wings on either side. The roof has Craftsman style deep eaves supported by large curving brackets, a detail repeated on dormers and projecting sections. The house was converted into apartments in the 1960s, but care was taken to preserve much of the interior woodwork.[2]
