The Nelson Rhodehouse House is a historic house at 131 Main Street in the Cotuit village of Barnstable, Massachusetts. The 1-1/2 story wood frame house was built c. 1858 by Charles Baxter, a housewright, who sold it soon thereafter to Nelson Rhodehouse, a mariner. The house is a fine example of Greek Revival style, with a distinctive side entrance located in a porch that is recessed under the gable. The house is finished in flushboarding, giving the appearance of masonry, with corner pilasters.

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