Joseph Smith House, Colonial house in North Providence, Rhode Island, US
The Joseph Smith House stands as a 2½-story wood-frame structure with six bays and a rear shed-style addition creating a saltbox profile.
Built around 1705, this house features a large chimney with lower sections predating King Philip's War of 1675-76, when the previous structure burned down.
The property represents Rhode Island's early architectural traditions as a stone-ender house, built by Joseph Smith, grandson of settler John Smith.
Located at 109 Smithfield Road, this National Register of Historic Places site provides insights into colonial-era construction methods and materials.
Daniel Jenckes, a Rhode Island judge, expanded the house in 1762, making modifications for his son while maintaining its original architectural character.
