A story-and-a-half, flank gable, frame dwelling built c. 1844-46. Sold in 1846 to Louisa Taft, whose husband Mowry was then part owner of the textile machinery factory, the property remained in the possession of the Tafts in 1900. Possessing a handsome pilaster-and-sidelight -front entrance and a heavy Doric porch across the entire front, it is a fine Greek Revival structure, of a type not common in Rhode Island. The heavy picket fence in front is said to date from he time of construction of the house.
