George W. Bush Childhood Home
Bush Family Home State Historic Site is a historic house that was home to former U.S. Presidents George W. Bush and George H. W. Bush from 1951 to 1955. It is located at 1412 W. Ohio Ave. in Midland, Texas.
The home was built in 1939 and was purchased by the Bush family in 1951 for $9,000 (equivalent to $106,000 in 2023). They lived in the 1,400-square-foot (130 m) home until late 1955. It was also the earliest childhood home of Governor Jeb Bush. The house was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2004. It was purchased for $100,000 to become the museum, which had its opening dedication on April 11, 2006. The house, formerly the George W. Bush Childhood Home, was transferred to the Texas Historical Commission in 2023.
