The Seth Knapp Jr. House is a historic colonial American house at 82 Water Street in Rehoboth, Massachusetts. It is a two story brick structure, with a gambrel roof pierced by gabled dormers, a four bay facade, and a central chimney. A single-story ell extends to the rear. The house was built c. 1735 for Ichabod Wood, and is the only surviving pre-1850 brick house in the town. The bricks were locally produced at a brickworks on the nearby Palmer River. Seth Knapp Jr., a later owner, made shoes on the property.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.[1]
