The Nettie Krouse Fourplex in southeast Portland in the U.S. state of Oregon is a 2.5-story multiple dwelling listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Built in the American Craftsman style in 1910, it was added to the register in 1989.[3]

The four units of the building are entered through separate exterior doors. Each floor has two apartments that are mirror images of one another. The fourplex is a good example of the many small-scale multi-family dwellings built in this part of Portland between 1905 and 1912. Notable features of the building include its rectangular form, broad overhanging eaves, wide porch, and multi-lit windows.[4]

Krouse, the original owner, at first lived in a house across the street but eventually moved into the apartment building. She resided there until her death in 1954.[4]
