Tom Thumb House, Historic residence in Middleborough, Massachusetts, United States.
The Tom Thumb House stands two and a half stories tall with a mansard roof and paired columns supporting the front porch entrance.
Built in the 1870s, this Second Empire style house served as a summer residence for Charles Stratton, a performer known professionally as General Tom Thumb.
The residence reflects nineteenth-century architectural adaptations for individuals of short stature, with original interior specifications designed for its 3-foot-4-inch owner.
Located at 351 Plymouth Street, the property maintains its status on the National Register of Historic Places since April 16, 1993.
The house features specialized architectural elements from the 1870s, though many of the original miniaturized interior components no longer remain.
