The Cottrell House is an historic complex at 500 Waites Corner Road in South Kingstown, Rhode Island. The house is the centerpiece of a working farm complex which includes 73 acres (30 ha) of land, and is one of South Kingstown's last working farms. The house, built c. 1790, is a fairly typical Federal style structure, 2-1/2 stories tall, five bays wide, with a large central chimney. The main barn, located south of the house, is believed to be contemporary to the house, although it has undergone some alteration and extension in the 20th century.[2]

The property was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1996.[1]
