John Whipple House

John Whipple House was added to the National Register of Historic Places on Oct 15, 1966, and named a National Historic Landmark on Oct 9, 1960. It is significant for its architecture at the national level. Its architecture is described as Colonial.

The John Whipple House is a historic colonial house at 1 South Green in Ipswich, Massachusetts. Built in the seventeenth century, the house has been open to the public as a museum since 1899 and was the subject of some of the earliest attempts at the preservation of colonial houses. It was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1960, one of the earliest properties to receive that honor.
