The H. S. Williams House, known as Lawndale, is a historic U.S. home that was located at 1219 Rockledge Drive, Rockledge, Florida. Hiram Smith Williams built the house in 1880 after moving to the area in 1874 from Alabama.[1] Williams grew citrus, founded the Brevard Telephone Company, and served as a Florida State Senator.[2] The second floor of the home, which was above the kitchen was used as a schoolroom for children, and was one of the first schools in the county.[1][2] Brevard County purchased the home in 1989 and restored it.[1] In 2012, the Preservation and Education Trust from Rockledge raised money to convert the historic home house into a museum,[2] which opened to the public for guided tours in December 2020.[3]

The house is located in the Rockledge Drive Residential District, in the National Register of Historic Places.[4]
