The Moses Ellis House is a historic house located at 283 Pleasant Street in Framingham, Massachusetts.

Description and history

The 2+1⁄2-story wood-frame house was designed by local architect Alexander Rice Esty and built c. 1866 for Moses Ellis, a well-to-do local farmer. The house has a distinctive front facade, with a square projecting gable-end section from which a porte cochere protrudes. The gable of the projection has a nearly pedimented end, with an oval-arched window, a motif repeated in a slightly projecting gable on the house's right facade. In the early 20th century the house was home to a school for boys.

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on November 29, 1983.
