The William Davis Miller House is an historic estate at 130 Main Street in the Wakefield village of South Kingstown, Rhode Island. The estate consists of 10.7 acres (4.3 ha) of land, on which stand a substantial house, garage and water tank, all built in the mid-1930s. The property was designed by Providence architect Albert Harkness and built for William Davis Miller and Mary (Chew) Miller. Miller was a social and civic force in Providence, serving as a trustee of Brown University, the Providence Public Libraries, and as president of the Rhode Island Historical Society, and was a longtime friend of Harkness. The Colonial Revival estate Harkness designed for the Millers typifies the type of country estates that were built in Rhode Island in the period.[2]

The estate was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.[1]
