Mountain View Farm is a historic farmhouse on Close Road, off Upper Jaffrey Road in Dublin, New Hampshire. The houses consists of two part: the older portion is a two story wood frame structure built about 1780 by Nathan Bixby, a major landowner and prominent citizen of the town. In the late 19th century the house was acquired by George and Alice Upton, who in 1903 commissioned John Lawrence Mauran, a prominent Chicago architect, to design a Georgian Revival summer house, to which the older house was attached as a wing. The best-known occupant of the house was Mark Twain, who rented it for his second visit to Dublin in 1906.[2]
The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.[1]
