  Smuggler's House is a historic house in Swansea, Massachusetts. It is a 1+1⁄2-story Cape style farmhouse, five bays wide, with a side gable roof, a chimney that is slightly off-center, and a pair of gabled dormers. Its main entry is flanked by pilasters and topped by a five-light transom window. The house was built c. 1800, and is substantially unaltered. It was supposedly used as a place to store smuggled goods during the War of 1812.
  
  The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.
