95 Chestnut Street is a historic house located in Wakefield, Massachusetts. It is significant as an example of a well-preserved vernacular Greek Revival style house.

Description and history

The {{frac|1|1|2}}-story wood-frame house was built in 1849 for Joshua Whittemore, who in 1862 invented a crutch (having lost a leg in an accident in 1850) that was sold worldwide. The house's gable end faces the street, with return eaves and wide corner boards. The front porch is a later Stick Style addition, with pediments and sawtooth ornamentation.[2]

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