The V. R. Coss House is a historic house in Muskogee, Oklahoma. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.[1]
It is a two-and-a-half-story house, about 50 by 75 feet (15 m × 23 m) in plan, and has a red tile roof. Its walls are brick, laid in running bond.[2]
It was built in 1906 by Virgil R. Coss, an early banker and real estate dealer in Muskogee. The house consists of 3 stories with a partial basement. The first level is predominantly made of quarter-sawn oak while the second level is made of maple. The home has the original stairway as well as a smaller servant stairway which had initiated at the butler's pantry. The butler's pantry was recently combined with the original kitchen to make a larger modern kitchen. The original dining room was fashioned after a railway dining car, so done because of Mr. Coss's close friendship with George Pullman.[3]
