The Eldridge House is a historic house located at 172 County Street in Taunton, Massachusetts. It is a 2-1/2 story wood frame structure, with a five-bay front facade and an unusually broad front-facing gable roof with two levels within it. It was built for a laborer circa 1850 in the Greek Revival style; its form is very rare for southeastern New England, and is more commonly found in northern Worcester County, southern New Hampshire and in the Connecticut River valley.[2]

The house was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.[1]
