The Edwin Smith House in Wellington, Kansas was built in 1935. Also known as the Pink House, it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2004.[1]

It has a 60 feet (18 m)-long facade topped by a parapet. It originally featured pink stucco. It is Spanish eclectic in style, and unusual in its small-town Kansas setting.[2] The house is surrounded on all sides by both the First Baptist Church of Wellington and the United Methodist Church.
