The Hildreth-Robbins House (also known as Red Wing Farm) is a historic house at 19 Maple Road in Chelmsford, Massachusetts. The main block of the 2+12-story wood-frame house was built in three stages, most likely over the course of the second half of the 18th century. That block is connected to a 19th-century barn (post-1860) via a long single-story ell. The property is significant as one of the major farmsteads of south Chelmsford of the 18th and 19th centuries. It is also distinctive as a rare 18th-century farm that was owned by a woman, Sarah Hildreth.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2006.[1]
