The Abbot-Battles House is a historic house at 31 Lowell Street in Andover, Massachusetts. The house was built c. 1809 for Jeduthan Abbot, who had married in 1805 and by then had two children. The house was built in part around the core of an older house, built c. 1700, which the previous owner of the property had removed part of. The Federalist facade of the house dates to Abbot's ownership. In 1838 Abbot sold the property to his son, from whom it quickly passed to Winslow Battles, who is identified by trade as a machinist. The house remained in the Battles family until 1950.[2]
The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.[1]
