The Zaldo de Nebot Residence (Spanish: Residencia Zaldo de Nebot), also known as the Fornaris Residence, is a historic house in Ponce, Puerto Rico. Built to a Neoclassical design in 1895, it is one of the fullest expressions of 19th century architecture for Ponce's wealthy creole class. Notable are the trompe-l'œil interior wall paintings of Parisian landmarks and fin de siècle decorative detailing.[4]

The house was entered on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988.[1]
