Smith-Appleby House, Colonial house museum in Smithfield, Rhode Island.
The Smith-Appleby House features period furniture, early New England cabinetry, stenciling, and traditional faux-finished floors throughout its two-and-a-half-story structure.
Built in 1696 by Elisha Smith, grandson of Rhode Island co-founder John Smith, this house expanded from a stone-ender to a saltbox configuration in 1713.
The Historical Society of Smithfield maintains extensive archives of photographs, documents, and local memorabilia within the Smith-Appleby House Museum.
Visitors can explore the museum during scheduled events or arrange private tours to learn about early American residential architecture and local history.
The relocation of Stillwater Road in the 19th century due to Georgiaville Pond's creation required a complete reversal of the house's front and rear orientations.
