The Scholze–Sayles House is an historic house at 625 East Avenue in Pawtucket, Rhode Island. It is a 1-1/2 story wood frame structure, built in 1874-75. It is one of two (the other is the nearby Louis Kotzow House) built by the German Land Cooperative Association, which sought to create a German-speaking enclave in the area. This house is a fine example of Gothic Revival style, and is stylistically similar to the Kotzow House, with a busy exterior that has numerous projecting and gabled sections, and Stick style decoration on a bay window. The interior was extensively redone in 1935 in a Federal Revival style by architect Albert Harkness.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.[1]
