Montalvo House is a historic mansion located in Brackettville, Texas. It was constructed in 1883 by a wealthy rancher named Joseph Montalvo, who used the property as a residence and a center for his ranching operations. The house was designed in the Victorian style and features a combination of Gothic, Italianate, and Second Empire architectural elements.

The mansion has a total of 15 rooms, including six bedrooms, four bathrooms, and a grand ballroom. It also has several unique features, such as a tower with a bird's-eye view of the surrounding countryside and a hidden staircase that leads to a secret room. The interior of the house is decorated with period furnishings and artwork that give visitors a glimpse into the life of a wealthy rancher in the late 19th century.

Over the years, Montalvo House has played host to a number of notable guests, including former President Theodore Roosevelt, who visited the property in 1905. Today, the mansion is open to the public for tours and events, and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It is considered one of the most well-preserved examples of Victorian architecture in Texas, and is a popular destination for history buffs and architecture enthusiasts alike.
