The House at 41 Middlesex Road in the Chestnut Hill section of Newton, Massachusetts is a well-preserved local example of Shingle style architecture. The 2 1/2 story stone and wood house was built in 1894 by William Dupee, who lived on a nearby estate. The ground floor has significant fieldstone elements, and the upper levels are clad in dark brown shingles. Some of the windows have diamond paned muntins, a late Victorian touch. The house was expanded in the 1930s, with a 1 1/2 story addition and garage.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.[1]
