The Robert Bacon House is a historic house at 6 Mystic Valley Parkway in Winchester, Massachusetts. The 2.5 story house has a wood frame with brick end walls, and was built c. 1830 to a design by builder John Kutts. In addition to being a rare local surviving example of transitional Federal/Greek Revival styling, the house's construction documents have survived, providing (in conjunction with the house itself) a view of early 19th century building practices. The owner, Robert Bacon, was a major early landowner in the area who operated a mill on the nearby Aberjona River.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.[1]
