Built on South Main Street in Suffield for Henry Phelps Kent, a tobacco merchant, in 1872. It was designed in the Second Empire style by local architect John Mead. Later, for almost sixty years, it the home of Samuel Reid Spencer, the prominent merchant and philanthrophist who had bought and restored the King House Museum next door. Today the house has been restored as a bed-and-breakfast called Spencer on Main.
