The Purchase-Ferre House is a historic colonial house at 1289 Main Street in Agawam, Massachusetts.

The Georgian style house was built in 1764, and remained in the same family until 1940. It underwent relatively little alteration during that period, and is one of Agawam's oldest houses. It was reportedly used at one time to manufacture boxes for the Springfield Armory.[2] The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.[1]
