The Logee House is an historic house on 225 Logee Street in Woonsocket, Rhode Island. Built in 1729 by a French Huguenot family, this two-story wood frame house is a rare early-18th-century house in the city, and one of its best-preserved. The main block follows a plan more typical of colonial Massachusetts houses, unsurprising given the land it stands on was once disputed between the two colonies. The main block has a central chimney, with single rooms on either side on both floors. An ell, probably 18th century in origin, extends from the rear, and a 20th-century porch adorns the front of the house.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.[1]
