The Goodale Homestead is a historic First Period house on Chestnut Street in Hudson, Massachusetts. The oldest portion of this 2-1/2 story timber frame house was built in 1702, making it the oldest building in Hudson. Built by John Goodale, it has been home to a number of his notable descendants, including Abner Goodale, a soldier in the American Revolutionary War. It is also believed to have served as a stop on the Underground Railroad.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1975.[1]
