The Abiah Bliss House is a historic house at 154 Agricultural Avenue in Rehoboth, Massachusetts. It is a 2-1/2 story wood frame house, six bays wide, with a roughly centered chimney, and an ell extending to the right side. The house has a complex construction history, which may begin as early as 1666, making it one of the oldest houses in the region. Architectural evidence suggests it was built before 1740. It was in the Bliss family into at least the 20th century.[2]

The house was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.[1]
