The King House is a historic house at 328 Brookline Street in Newton, Massachusetts. This 2 1/2 story timber frame house was built c. 1700, and is one of Newton's few First Period houses, dating to the early period of its settlement. The house was given Greek Revival styling in the 19th century, and is also notable for its association with Noah King, a long-time prominent local doctor.[2]
