The Tayloe House is an 18th-century house in Williamsburg, Virginia. Located on E.

The house was purchased by John Tayloe II in 1759 by Dr. James Carter, resident surgeon of Williamsburg. Tayloe was an influential member of the King's Council under Lord Dunmore and of the first Republic Council under Governor Patrick Henry. Tayloe was a member of the House of Burgesses of Virginia in 1774.

A replica of the house was built in 2004 in Moorestown, New Jersey.{{cite web|author1=Izzy Kornblatt|title=Meticulous Colonial Reproduction in Moorestown|url=http://www.phillymag.com/property/2014/04/01/meticulous-colonial-reproduction-moorestown/|publisher=Philadelphia Magazine|accessdate=20 July 2016|date=April 1, 2014}}
