The Nathaniel Drown House is a historic house at 116 Summer Street in Rehoboth, Massachusetts. Built c. 1750, this two story wood frame house is one of the best-preserved local examples of the once-common gambrel roof Georgian house. Its builder is unknown; its first documented owner was Nathaniel Drown, who owned it during the American Revolutionary War. The interior retains original wood paneling, fireplaces, and flooring. The property also includes a c. 1840 barn and a mid-19th century carriage barn.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.[1]
