The Samuel Viall House is a historic house at 85 Carpenter Street in Rehoboth, Massachusetts. This 1-1/2 story wood frame house has an unusual construction history: it was originally built c. 1800 as an outbuilding, probably by either Peter or Thomas Carpenter. It was acquired in 1850 by Samuel Viall, who made extensive alterations, transforming it into a Greek Revival side-hall house, a type which is rare in Rehoboth. The additions on the east side of the house date to the 20th century.[2]

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