The Bacon-Gleason-Blodgett Homestead is a historic house at 118 Wilson Road in Bedford, Massachusetts. The two story brick house was built c. 1740 by Nathaniel Bacon, and is a well-preserved transitional Georgian-Federal style house. Bacon, along with the later owners Gleason and Blodgett, farmed and operated the John Wilson gristmill that was located nearby. The house has retained significant internal woodwork from the 18th century.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1977,[1] and included in the Wilson Mill-Old Burlington Road District in 2003.[2]
