The Solomon Piper Farm is a historic farmhouse at 227 Valley Road in Dublin, New Hampshire. The 1-1/2 story vernacular Cape style house was built c. 1794 by Solomon Piper, progenitor of the locally prominent Piper family, and is an excellent local example of a typical early 19th century farmhouse. It is five bays wide, with narrow windows, and a small extension added to the east end. Interior details which have been retained include wainscoting, chair rails, and fireplace mantels.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.[1] The home of Solomon Piper's son, the Rufus Piper Homestead, also still stands and is also listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
