The Charles Browne House is a historic house located at 932 South Church Street in North Adams, Massachusetts. It was built in 1869 for Charles A. Browne, a local inventor who invented the electrical fuse, and who worked on the Hoosac Tunnel. The house, which is located not far from the western portal of the tunnel, was constructed in a distinctive regional variant of the Italianate style, of which it is a significant surviving example. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.
