The Israel Southwick House is an historic house located at 76 Mendon Street (at its northwest corner with Oak Street), in Uxbridge, Massachusetts. The 2 1⁄2 story wood frame house was built c. 1860-65, and is a good local example of Italianate styling, with Queen Anne elements added c. 1890. The main facade is three bays, with a center entry that has an elaborate colonnaded porch with a gable front roof. Above the entry is a Palladian window with a small half-round window surmounting the central of three relatively narrow windows. There is a gable-roof dormer with three windows above. To the left of the entry is a single story porch that has been enclosed, and a rounded corner porch extends to the right of the entry.
