The Alfred Vinton House is a historic house at 417 Main Street in Winchester, Massachusetts. It is a two story wood frame structure, three bays wide, with a side gable roof that has bracketed eaves. The front is symmetrically arranged, with a center entrance flanked by sidelight windows, and set under an elaborately decorated front porch. A round-arch window stands above the entrance. Gardner Symmes, a local builder, built the Italianate house c. 1854, and may have lived in it before Alfred Vinton, a local lawyer who married into the Symmes family, bought it in 1862. It remained in the Vinton family into the 1920s.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.[1]
