The Asa Locke House is a historic house at 68 High Street in Winchester, Massachusetts. The 2.5 story wood frame house was built sometime between 1831 and 1857 by Asa Locke, the son of a local farmer, and is a well-preserved example of a side-hall Italianate farmhouse. Its windows rest on bracketed sills, and its door is framed by transom and sidelight windows. A porch with chamfered posts wraps around two sides of the house, and there is a two-story ell attached to its rear.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.[1]
