The Reed-Dossey House, in Brownsville, Kentucky, is a historic house built around 1890. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986. [1]
It is a balloon-frame house with a two-story T-plan, plus a one-story wing. [2]
It was deemed notable "as an unusually large and intact example of vernacular late Victorian architecture in a small town in western Kentucky" with well-preserved interior and exterior details. [2]
The house was built by/for entrepreneur J.P.

The house was later operated by the Dossey family as a boarding house; Miss Tandie Mclntyre, a local schoolteacher was a notable boarder. [2]
