The McMahan House at 203 Washington St. in La Grange, Kentucky was built in c.1820 as a brick I-house. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.[1]

It is notable as "the only remaining early nineteenth century structure in LaGrange, Kentucky. As such, the five-bay brick I-house is the town's only tangible link with its early settlement and building period. The double-stretcher Flemish bond of the north facade and the remaining interior Federal moldings and mantles are evidence of the building's early construction date...."[2]

It is a contributing building in the Central La Grange Historic District, which is also listed on the National Register.
