Taylor's Corner is a historic house on Route 171 in Woodstock, Connecticut. It is a 2-1/2 story wood frame structure, five bays wide, with a side gable roof and a large central chimney. A series of additions and wings extend to the left side of the main block. Based on architectural analysis (because the documentary record is cloudy and ambiguous before 1800), the main house was probably built around 1790, and represents a well-preserved local example of vernacular Federal architecture.[2]
The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.[1]
