The Daniel S. Piper House is a historic farmstead complex in Medford, Minnesota, United States. Consisting of an interconnected house, summer kitchen, shed, and barn, it is Minnesota's only known surviving example of a property type imported by settlers from New England. The Piper House complex was built in 1877.[2] It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1975 for having state-level significance in the themes of agriculture, architecture, and exploration/settlement.[3] It was nominated for being the only surviving example of a distinctive property type and for being a symbol of Minnesota's many New Englander pioneers.[2]
