The Isaac Hall House is a historic house at 43 High Street in Medford, Massachusetts. Built c. 1720 by Andrew Hall, it is the oldest surviving house in Medford Square. The three story wood frame house was extensively remodeled in the Federal style in c. 1780 by Hall's son Isaac. The house also has a prominent history in the American Revolutionary War: Isaac Hall was the captain of the Medford minute company, and his house is one of the places Paul Revere stopped on the night of April 18–19, 1775 before the Battles of Lexington and Concord.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1975.[1] It now houses a funeral home.
