The Silas Dean House is a historic house at 8 Pine Street in Stoneham, Massachusetts. Built c. 1840, it is a stylistically rare form of a Greek Revival cottage. The front of the house is a front porch sheltered by the slope of the roof, rather than a more traditional gable-end orientation.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.[1] Period detailing present on the porch at the time of its listing, including turned posts and a bracketed frieze,[2] has been lost by subsequent alterations (see photo).
