William Wilson House, also known as Prospect Hill and the Trammell Hollis House, is a historic home located in Gerrardstown, Berkeley County, West Virginia. It was built between 1792 and 1802, and is a large, two story brick dwelling on a stone foundation in a late-Georgian style. It measures 36 feet 6 inches (11.13 m) deep and 70 feet (21 m) wide and consists of a three-bay central block with a four-bay side wing. The interior features a mural by Baltimore artist Olive Verna Rogers painted in 1936. The property includes four brick outbuildings dated as far back as the 1850s: a kitchen, spring house, privy, and the original stone dwelling house.
The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.
