The William P. Mason House is a historic house at 5 Mason Street in Swansea, Massachusetts. It is a 1-1/2 story wood frame structure, with a side gable roof and clapboard siding. The main facade is asymmetrical, with an off-center gable and its entry sheltered by a bracketed hood. A 1-1/2 story ell extends to the rear, with a porch extending along its side. The house was built c. 1860, and is a fine local example of vernacular Gothic Revival styling. It occupied a prominent role in the village of Barneyville, serving as hotel, tavern, and post office at various times before about 1930, when it reverted to strictly residential use.[2]
The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.[1]
