Harnden Farm is a historic farmstead at 261 Salem Street in Andover, Massachusetts. It includes a farmhouse and barn, built c. 1840 for Jesse Harnden, a farmer who moved from Reading. The house is notable for its late Federal style elements as well as its Greek Revival styling. It is 2-1/2 stories high, five bays wide, with a side gable roof and end chimneys. Its main entrance is sheltered by a portico with fluted columns and a balustrade on its roof. The barn on the property is a rare surviving example of a Greek Revival barn.[2]
The farmstead was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.[1]
