The White House in Christianburg, Kentucky, also known as Otto Minch House, is a Gothic Revival building from before 1882, perhaps much before. It is of frame construction with brick nogging. [2] It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988. [1]

It was deemed significant in part "because it is a unique example of board and batten Gothic Revival in Shelby County." It is unusual also for its side passage plan architecture in a rural residence. [2]
