The George E. Stubbins House, also known as the Reibsamen-Weiland House, is a historic residence located in Britt, Iowa, United States. George E. Stubbins was a local merchant who built the first brick commercial block in town, and served as Britt's first mayor.[2] Mary Reibsamen in 1922, and it has remained in that family at least into the late 1990s. The house is considered one of the finest Eastlake houses in Iowa.[2] Its Gothic Revival influences, which include the corner oriel window, the gabled and bracketed roof over the first-story bay, and the vergeboards, are combined with its cross-gable hip roof from the Queen Anne style to fully express the Stick style. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1999.[1]
