Cushing House Museum and Garden, Federal mansion in Newburyport, Massachusetts, United States.

The four-story brick residence at 98 High Street contains five symmetrical windows across its facade and features entrances on front and sides.

Built in 1808, the house belonged to diplomat Caleb Cushing, who negotiated the 1844 Treaty of Wanghia between the United States and China.

The museum displays collections of silver, furniture, portraits, clocks, needlework, antique fans, and nineteenth-century toys from New England, Asia, and Europe.

The Historical Society of Old Newbury operates guided tours of the mansion from Memorial Day through Columbus Day each year.

The China Trade Room exhibits early decorative arts including four Chinese coastal Hong paintings from maritime commerce periods.
