The Whipple House is a historic house museum at 4 Pleasant Street in Ashland, New Hampshire. The 1 1⁄2 story Cape style house was built c. 1825-1850, and is relatively architecturally undistinguished. It is significant for its association with George Hoyt Whipple (1878-1976), a Nobel Prize-winning doctor and pathologist. It is in this house that Whipple was born in 1879. Whipple gave the house to the town in 1970, and it is now operated by the Ashland Historical Society as a museum, open during the warmer months.
The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.
