Joseph Tatnall House, also known as the "Oliver Evans House," is a historic home located at Newport, New Castle County, Delaware. The house is alternatively named after Newport's favorite son Oliver Evans (1755-1819), although he had no apparent historical association with it.[2]

It is a 2+12-story, five-bay gambrel-roofed brick building in the

Ciba-Geigy; the plant was spun off to Ciba Specialty Chemicals in 1997 and it, and the house, were owned by the BASF branch, BASF Colors & Effects, until the branch was sold to Sun Chemical
in 2021. Today, Sun Chemical Colors & Effects is the owner of the house.

The house was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1993.[1]
