The Jonathan Wade House is a historic First Period house at 13 Bradlee Road in Medford, Massachusetts. It is one of a handful of houses in the city with brickwork from the 17th century (the other two known survivors are the Isaac Royall House and the Peter Tufts House). A brick house is known to have been standing on this site in 1689, when Jonathan Wade, Jr., died. The house was given Georgian styling in the mid-18th century, and was owned for many years in the 19th century by Samuel C. Lawrence, Medford's first mayor.[2]
