The William P. Mason House is a historic house located in Swansea, Massachusetts.
It is a 1+1⁄2-story, wood-framed 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 in about 1860. 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 on August 8, 1990.[1]
