The Rogers House is a historic house at 28 Boyden Road 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]
