The Stone Farm is a historic farmhouse on Old Marlborough Road in Dublin, New Hampshire. The main block of this 2-1/2 story farmhouse was built c. 1806 by John Stone, Jr. It was enlarged, possibly in several stages, during the 19th century, giving it its present Greek Revival styling, with some Italianate touches. The property was bought in 1905 by Alberta Houghton (of the Houghton Mifflin publishing family), and operated as a "gentleman's farm" into the 1940s.[2] Houghton also purchased the nearby Stone-Darracott House property as part of her farm.

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