The House at 12 Linden Street in Brookline, Massachusetts, is a rare local example of Greek Revival styling, and one of a few houses to survive from the residential development of the Linden Street area in the 1840s. The 2-1/2 story wood frame house was built in 1843, and faces Linden Park, part of the original subdivision; it has a fully pedimented gable end, a heavy cornice, and pilastered cornerboards. The first owner was Charles Scudder, a merchant working in Boston.[2]
The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.[1]
