c. 1678–1679; 18th century; later ells. 432 Massasoit Ave.

The oldest house in town was built by the son of an original Rehoboth settler, owner of a sawmill, who was among the wealthiest and best-educated men in the community. Originally a three-bay house with central chimney, it was remodeled at the time of an eighteenth-century extension on the south side to five bays, but with an erratic window arrangement. Twentieth-century shingling covers three sides.
