The Luther Winslow Jr. House is a historic house located at 5225 North Main Street in Fall River, Massachusetts.

Description and history

Built in 1795, the 1+12-story farmhouse is a fine example of 18th century vernacular architecture which has remained remarkably intact. Typical features include the 5-bay wide plan, large central chimney, clapboard sheathing, pilasters framing the center door, transom lights, 12/12 sash, corner boards and wide entablature. It is one of six houses in the Steep Brook area considered to be the best representatives of the pre-industrial period of the city's history.[2]

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on February 16, 1983.
