The Aaron Martin House is a historic house in Waltham, Massachusetts. The 2+1⁄2-story wood-frame house was built in the 1890s by Waltham Watch Company employee and real estate speculator Aaron Martin. It is a particularly well-preserved local example of Queen Anne styling. It has a variety of projections, gables, and porches, in a manner typical of the style, as well as a 3+1⁄2-story tower with a bell-shaped roof. Its porches are elaborately decorated with gingerbread woodwork.[2]
