The Acre is a historic house at the corner of Main Street and Dublin Road in Harrisville, New Hampshire. The 2.5 story wood frame house was built in 1879 or 1880 by the Chesire Mill Company as housing for itinerant workers. Despite its comparatively late construction date, the house is unusual for being predominantly Greek Revival in character, with some Italianate features. Its front facade is five bays wide, with a central entry flanked by pilasters and sheltered by a simple gable-roof porch. The central gable above the entry in the roof is a typical Italianate feature.[2]
The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988.[1]
