The Mitchell–Arnold House is a historic house located in Pawtucket, Rhode Island.

Description and history

It is a picturesque 1+12-story wood-frame structure, built in 1871 and added to and modified in subsequent decades. It began as a flank-gable cottage, a form typical for the time, and was gradually extended with projecting sections, additions, and an elaborately decorated porch to create a fine example of Queen Anne architecture. The original house was built by James W. Mitchell, a clerk at a local lumber company; the additions were probably made by John H. Arnold, a real estate and insurance broker.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on November 18, 1983.[1]
