The Thomas M. Baldwin House is a historic house located in Prineville, Oregon, United States. It is noted for its association with Baldwin, as well as for its architectural values.

Thomas M. Baldwin (1854–1919) was one of the most prominent bankers in Prineville during the fist decades of the 20th century, a period during which Crook County and Central Oregon prospered. By 1917 he rose to be president of the First National Bank, the oldest bank in the region. Baldwin had this impressive Colonial Revival house built in 1907, and lived in it through the height of his career. The house, designed by the firm of prominent Portland architect John V. Bennes, is the best designed and finished house of its style in Prineville.[1]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1987.[2]
