The Sykes House is a historic Queen Anne style house located at 521 West Main Street in North Adams, Massachusetts. It was built in 1890 by the Porter & Hannum company, a leading homebuilder in North Adams, for Thomas Sykes, a supervisor at the North Adams Manufacturing Company. The house is not as elaborate or lavish as many Queen Anne designs, and its design may have originated in a mail-order catalog. The only major modification to the building was the addition in 1920 of a two story porch structure on the rear right side. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.
