The Plummer Homestead is a historic house at 1273 White Mountain Highway in Milton, New Hampshire. The main house of this traditional connected farmstead was built in the 1780s by Beard Plumer, brother of Joseph Plumer who built the adjacent Plumer-Jones Farm, and it was occupied by a succession of Plumer (later Plummer) descendants until the 1990s. The main block of the house was originally a 1-1/2 story Cape style house, which was raised to a full two stories in 1848. An extended seven-bay ell connects this main block to a c. 1870 barn. This cluster of buildings stands on about 20 acres (8.1 ha) of land, the remnant of a once larger property reduced in part by the construction of the nearby Spaulding Turnpike.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2002.[1]
