The Jonathan Wade House is a historic First Period house at 13 Bradlee Road in Medford, Massachusetts. It is one of a handful of houses in the city with brickwork from the 17th century (the other two known survivors are the Isaac Royall House and the Peter Tufts House). A brick house is known to have been standing on this site in 1689, when Jonathan Wade, Jr., died. The house was given Georgian styling in the mid-18th century, and was owned for many years in the 19th century by Samuel C. Lawrence, Medford's first mayor. [2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1975. [1]

The house was used as a medical office for many years, most recently by Dr. Ellen Guthrie, an obstetrician and gynecologist. [3] It was sold in January 2024 for $1.23 million. [4]
