The William B. Sherman Farm is a historic farmhouse located at 1072 State Road in North Adams, Massachusetts. It was built in the 1820s by William Sherman, a Rhode Island native who moved to the area in 1780. The Greek Revival house is one of the oldest surviving farmhouses in North Adams. Sherman sold his house and farm to his son Eber (who built another house nearby) in 1843. The property then went through a succession of owners, and most of the farmland was sold off for development. The house now sits on less than an acre of land.[2] It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.[1]
