The Washington Mooney House is a historic house on New Hampshire Route 104, near its junction with New Hampshire Route 132 and Interstate 93, in New Hampton, New Hampshire. Built c. 1800, this two story wood frame house is one of the finest surviving Federal period houses in the town. Its builder is unknown; the house and associated farm property were probably purchased by Washington Mooney around the time of his 1831 marriage. Despite adaptive reuse of the property in the 20th century for office space, and a succession of owners, the basic fabric of the building has remained little altered. The building is locally distinctive for its particularly fine central hall.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1997.[1]
