The Charles Gunn House (also known as the Bellenger Home) is a historic residence in Gadsden, Alabama, United States. The house was built in 1886 by Edward Tracy Hollingsworth, a local merchant and banker. Charles Logan Gunn, a dentist, purchased the house in 1901. His daughter, Carolyn Gunn Bellenger, inherited the house and willed it to the city upon her death in 1990. See also: The city restored the house and now rents it for meetings and events.
The highly decorated Victorian house has a mansard roof with projecting gable atop a bay window on the north and east sides. The façade also features a wraparound porch with latticework balustrade. The house was listed on the Alabama Register of Landmarks and Heritage in 1984 and the National Register of Historic Places in 1993.
