The Timothy Corey House No. 2 is a historic house at 786—788 Washington Street in Brookline, Massachusetts. The 2 1⁄2-story fieldstone house was built in 1843 for Deacon Timothy Corey; his first house stands nearby at 808 Washington Street. The house is locally distinctive for its construction material, since stone has historically been rarely used in house construction in the area. Stylistically it is a vernacular interpretation of the Greek Revival.[2]
The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.[1]
