The Flint Farm is a historic farmhouse in Andover, Massachusetts. It was built in 1810 for farmer John Flint, and remained in the family until it was sold by his grandchildren in 1894. It is a two-story wood-frame structure with a hip roof and two side chimneys. Its main facade is five bays wide, with asymmetrically placed windows. The center entrance is flanked by pilasters and topped by a fanlight window and a cornice. The house is a comparatively ambitious and sophisticated Federal style house for a rural area.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.[1]
