The Joseph Damon House in Reading, Massachusetts, is a two-and-a-half-story wood-frame dwelling built around 1754 that exemplifies Georgian colonial architecture with subsequent Federal period modifications. A good local representative of its era, the house reflects both the design sensibilities of mid-eighteenth-century New England and later stylistic refinements. The property's history also illustrates a characteristic pattern of shared ownership among multiple descendants of one of its original proprietors. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984, it remains a significant document of domestic architecture in colonial Massachusetts.
