The Amos Kling House is a historic house located in Daytona Beach, Florida. It is locally significant for its association with the development of the resort community of Daytona Beach during the early 20th century.

Description

Constructed in 1907, the 2+1⁄2-story house has an irregular floor-plan. The frame structural system is finished on all elevations with weatherboard siding and wood shingles. It rests on a brick pier foundation with lattice infill. The cross-gable roof is sheathed with asphalt shingles. The vernacular residence is enlivened by features associated with the Shingle Style. It was the summer home of Amos Kling, the father-in-law of U.S. President Warren Harding. Currently a restaurant, the Cellar, occupies the first floor.

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on December 2, 1993.
