The Hovey-Winn House is a Greek Revival cottage at 384 Main Street in Winchester, Massachusetts, built around 1841 by local housewright John Coats. The 1½-story structure features a distinctive side gable roof overhanging a full-width Doric porch, a design shared by only a handful of contemporary houses in the area. Over the nineteenth century, the house was home to several prominent Winchester residents, including Reverend William Eustis, druggist Josiah Hovey, and Hovey's son-in-law Denis Winn, who operated the town's first livery stable. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.
