The Burford House is a historic house in Goshen, New Hampshire. It is located on the west side of New Hampshire Route 10, about 100 yards (91 m) south of its junction with Brook Road. The 1-1/2 story wood frame house was built in 1843, and is one of a cluster of locally significant plank-frame houses. This one is built using three-inch planks as framing members. The house is five bays wide and three deep, with a central chimney. It has a particularly elaborate front entry surround. This house belonged to Walter Nelson, who was the first to identify and document Goshen's numerous plank-framed houses.

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.
