The Sumner-Carpenter House is a historic house at 333 Old Colony Road in Eastford, Connecticut. It is a 2-1/2 story wood frame structure, consisting of a main block and a series of additions. The main block has a hipped roof, with a side gable-roofed ell, apparently built either with or not long after the main block, with a gable roof, and a c. 1900 two story gable-roofed wing to the rear. The house was built c. 1806, probably by Vini Goodell who also built the Benjamin Bosworth House, for John Newton Sumner. It is a well-preserved local example of a rural Federal period residence, augmented by a modest collection of Colonial Revival outbuildings.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1991.[1]
