The Rogers House is a historic house in Holden, Massachusetts. The 1.5-story Cape-style wood-frame house was built sometime before 1733, and is possibly the oldest building in Holden (there is no firm evidence for a traditionally-ascribed date of 1722 for its construction). It is the best-preserved example of its style in the area, which was once somewhat common.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982,[1] and was included in an expansion of the Holden Center Historic District in 1995.[2]
