The Johnson-Thompson House is a historic house in Winchester, Massachusetts. Built c. 1750, this two story Georgian house is the oldest structure in Winchester. The house contains evidence it once had a large central chimney, a typical Georgian feature, which was later removed and replaced by the narrower chimneys on the rear wall. The house was probably built by William Johnson, a prominent figure in the history of Woburn, when this area was part of that town. In 1858 Timothy Thompson, who had married Caroline Johnson, inherited the property.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989,[1] at which time it was still in the hands of Thompson descendants.[2]
