The Dinsmoor–Hale House is a historic house at the southwest corner of Main and Winchester Streets in Keene, New Hampshire. This three story stuccoed brick house was built in 1860 for Samuel Dinsmoor, Jr., a lawyer and former Governor of New Hampshire. The building is roughly square in plan, with a slight projection on the south facade, where there is a stairwell, and on the main facade, where a semicircular bay rises the full three stories and is capped by a low rounded roof. The center entry is recessed from the main facade, with a recessed porch above, which is capped by a small gable. The house was later owned by Governor Samuel W. Hale, who made lavish alterations to its interior. It was acquired by what is now Keene State College in 1909. It now houses the office of the college president.
The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1976.
