The Parsons Homestead is a historic house at 520 Washington Road in Rye, New Hampshire. The construction date of this 2-1/2 story wood frame house is traditionally given as 1757, but there is no significant architectural evidence supporting a construction date before about 1800. Portions of the house (a stairway and some posts) appear to have been recycled from an older house. The interior woodwork is among the finest of the period in Rye.[2]
The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.[1]
