The Webster Childs House is a historic house at 9 Meadowcroft Road in Winchester, Massachusetts. The 2.5 story brick Queen Anne style house is one of three similar houses built by David Skilling on his Rangeley estate. The slate roof has numerous cross gables, which are decorated with stick-work. Its main facade is symmetrical, with a central projecting pavilion. The pavilion is topped by a gable with a trefoil and a pointed-arch window. The house was built for Webster Childs, a piano manufacturer.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.[1]
