The Ashland Place Historic District is a single-family residential district in Phoenix, Arizona. It was one of the first speculative residential developments in Phoenix. The Period Revival and bungalow style residences were built in the 1920s by Home Builders, Inc. in association with realtors Greene and Griffin.[2]

Some houses were designed by Phoenix architect C. Lewis Kelley, the "Home Artist" for the builders, who is known for his Period Revivals styled houses.[2]

Ashland Place was added to the National Register of Historic Places on December 21, 1994.[1]
