The Pratt House is a historic house in Reading, Massachusetts. The two-story wood-frame house was built in 1809 and is stylistically a transitional Georgian/Federal structure. The main portion of the house is a single room deep, and there is a two-story shed-roof extension on the rear. The house belonged to various members of the locally prominent Pratt family, including Joseph Pratt, the first Reading shoe manufacturer to use a stitching machine. [2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984. [1]
