Tappan-Viles House, Historic residence on State Street, Augusta, United States.

The Tappan-Viles House spans two and a half stories with clapboard siding, featuring a hip roof topped with a cupola and granite foundation.

Reverend Benjamin Tappan constructed this Federal-style house in 1816, which later underwent Italianate modifications by Colonel Alanson B. Farwell in 1862.

The building incorporates multiple architectural periods, from Federal and Italianate to Colonial Revival, reflecting the changing tastes of American residential design.

The property now functions as part of the Kennebec Savings Bank complex, maintaining its structural integrity while serving contemporary business needs.

The front facade displays an elaborate entrance porch with paired Corinthian columns and a Palladian window above the main doorway.
