Dorrance Mansion, Renaissance Revival mansion in Bristol, United States.

The brick mansion features a symmetrical front facade with proportionally decreasing windows and a five-story elliptical central tower containing a winding staircase.

The structure contains two separate staircases, including one in the tower that connects the basement kitchen directly to the dining room.
