The Hooper-Eliot House is an historic house at 25 Reservoir Road in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The three story Stick style house was built in 1872 for E.W. Hooper to a design by Sturgis & Brigham. The building's five-bay facade and gambrel roof form an early part of the effort by Sturgis to popularize the Georgian Revival. Its original main facade oriented to the north, a new south-facing entry was designed in 1902 by Lois Lilley Howe, featuring a broken scrolled pediment above the porch. The house was purchased by Samuel Atkins Eliot in that same year.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.[1]
