The Sabin S. Murdock House is a historic house in Murdock, Minnesota, United States. It was built in 1878 for Sabin S. Murdock (1830–1900), who almost singlehandedly founded and promoted the community he named after himself.[2] The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985 for having local significance in the themes of architecture, European ethnic heritage, and exploration/settlement.[3] It was nominated for being West-central Minnesota's most prominent house of a single individual who established and promoted a rural townsite, and for being the oldest and most architecturally significant Victorian house in Murdock.[2]
