The Samuel Colby House is a historic house located at 74 Winthrop Street in Taunton, Massachusetts. The house was built in 1869 for Samuel Colby, a manufacturer and retailer of men's and boy's clothing who operated a store in the Union Block in downtown Taunton. It is a two-story wood frame structure, with a stuccoed finish, and a low-pitch hip roof capped by a large cupola. Its bays are demarcated by pilasters, and the porches are extensively decorated with stickwork.[2]

The Colby house was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.
