The House at 129 High Street in Reading, Massachusetts, is a well-preserved, modestly scaled Queen Anne Victorian house. The  2 1⁄2-story cross-gabled wood-frame structure was built in the 1890s; its most prominent feature is a pair of rounded single-story projections from the front facade. The right side is part of the porch that extends across the center of the facade, and the left is an enclosed circular room. These rounded sections and portions of the gable ends have decorative cut wood shingle finishes.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.[1]
