Winslow House is a historic house museum located in Marshfield, Massachusetts. The house was built in 1699 by Edward Winslow, the great-grandson of Mayflower passenger Edward Winslow. It is one of the oldest surviving examples of Colonial architecture in the United States and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

The two-story timber-framed house features a steeply pitched roof, a central chimney, and a symmetrical facade with four bays. The interior of the house has been restored to reflect the period in which it was built, with authentic furnishings and decor. The first floor includes a parlor, a dining room, a kitchen, and a bedroom, while the second floor features additional bedrooms and a study.

In addition to its historical significance, Winslow House is also known for its beautiful gardens, which were designed in the Colonial Revival style by noted landscape architect Marian Cruger Coffin in the early 20th century. The gardens feature a variety of plantings, including perennials, shrubs, and trees.

Today, Winslow House serves as a museum and cultural center, offering tours, educational programs, and community events. Visitors can learn about the history of Marshfield and the Winslow family, as well as the broader history of Colonial America.
