The Henry P. Fennern House is a historic building located in the West End of Davenport, Iowa, United States. This house dates from 1902 and was built by Henry P. Fennern, who had worked as a shipper for a local wholesale grocer, the J.F. Kelly Company. While the asbestos "brick" siding is not original, the decorative detail in the front gable is original to the house.[2] It features three types of shingles and a small window set in curved reveals. This detail suggests Shingle style architecture. Another detail of the house, now missing, is the recessed, corner entrance with a spindle screen above.[2] The house has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 1984.[1]
