The W.H. Goulding House is an historic house at 4 Dix Street in Worcester, Massachusetts. The 2+12-story frame house was built between 1847 and 1849, and was originally located at 26 Harvard Street. The owner was Harry Goulding, owner of some of Worcester's largest industrial businesses and founder of the Worcester Mechanics' Association. In 1850 Goulding moved the house to its present location so that he could build a more opulent Italianate house on that site. This house has well-preserved Greek Revival features, including corner pilasters, a front porch supported by fluted Doric columns, and a front entry flanked by sidelight windows and pilasters.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.[1]
