The Thomas Ayer House is a historic house at 10 Grove Street in Winchester, Massachusetts. The 2.5 story wood frame house was built c. 1864, and is a conservative but detailed example of early Italianate architecture. It has pilastered corner boards, bracketed eaves, and tall windows with projecting sills and lintels. The front portico has simple round columns supporting a roof with a low balcony. The house was first owned by Thomas Ayer, a local businessman and politician who served on the board of selectmen and as president of a local bank.[2]
The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.[1]
