The John Sweek House, also originally known as Meadowbrook, is a historic residence in Tualatin, Oregon, United States. Construction began in 1858 for John Sweek, who donated the land for Tualatin's original townsite.[1][2] While the house is named after Sweek, his wife Maria managed the construction; Sweek had been off in Idaho for six years.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.[3]
