The W.L. Wood House is a historic house at 709 North Morrill Street in Morrilton, Arkansas. It is a 2-1/2 story wood frame structure, with a hip roof, weatherboard exterior, and foundation of stone and brick. It has the asymmetrical massing typical of the Queen Anne period, with a three-story turret at the left corner, and a porch that wraps across the front and around the base of the tower. The porch is supported by round columns and has a turned balustrade and a low gable over the main steps. A large gable that projects from the main roof has a rounded-corner balcony at its center. The interior has richly detailed woodwork in the Eastlake style. The house was built in 1905-06 for William L. Wood, a prominent local businessman.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2002.[1]
