The Wardell House was a historic home located at 1 Wardell Rd. in Macon, Macon County, Missouri. It was built in 1890, and it was a three-story, Queen Anne-style frame dwelling over a full basement. It was remodeled between 1899 and 1901. It had a complex hipped roof line and asymmetrical plan, and it featured a full-width verandah and an open tower on its second and third stories.[2]: 2 

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.[1]

As of 2023, the Wardell House was demolished in its entirety, and the grounds upon which it sat were cleared of foliage and fully repurposed for the construction of a set of private, duplex housing units.[3]
