The Sprague House is a historic house in Danvers, Massachusetts. It is a 2+12-story wood-frame structure, five bays wide, with a side-gable roof, end chimneys, and clapboard siding. This well preserved Federal style house was built in 1810 for Joseph Sprague, Jr., son of a wealthy Salem merchant who was also involved in the family business. The house's main Federal feature is its central doorway, which features a semicircular fanlight window and a pedimented overhang supported by pilasters.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1987.[1]
