Gershom Hyde House
The Gershom Hyde House is a historic house at 29 Greenwood Street in Newton, Massachusetts, US. One of the city's oldest houses, this Georgian-style farmhouse was built c. 1744, probably built by Gershom Hyde, one of Newton's early settlers. It is a 2 1⁄2-story wood-frame structure, five bays wide, with a side-gable roof, large central chimney, and clapboard siding. The rear ell and front porch are later additions. The house's location is along what was once a major road through the area.[2]
