The Jedediah Higgins House is a historic house on Higgins Hollow Road in North Truro, Massachusetts. It is one of the least-altered 19th century Cape style houses in the Cape Cod National Seashore, and an excellent early example of that style. It is a 1.5 story post-and-beam house, whose front facade typifies the Cape style: a central doorway flanked by windows on either side. Its interior floor plan is also typical, with two rooms on the south side and one large one to the north, with a central chimney. Interior finishes have also been preserved, including wood flooring, paneling, and wainscoting.

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.
