Eveleth Farm is a historic farmstead on Burpee Road in Dublin, New Hampshire, United States. The 1 1⁄2 story wood frame Cape house was built c. 1823 by Joab Eveleth. This main block has a five-bay facade and a central chimney. A sympathetic addition, including a one-story wing and a garage, was made in 1981. A 19th-century barn on the property was destroyed in the New England Hurricane of 1938. The house is notable for its association with Henry David Thoreau, who visited the farm during a stay in Dublin in 1852.[2]
The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.[1]
