The William Peabody House is a historic house on North River Road in Milford, New Hampshire. This 2-1/2 story wood frame house was built c. 1740 by William Peabody, the first English settler of the Milford area. It was occupied in the 18th and 19th centuries by several generations of locally prominent Peabodys. The house is a good example of Georgian styling; however, its interior suffered extensive damage by fire in 1973, which has since been restored based on photographs and surviving woodwork elements.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.[1]
