The Boschke–Boyd House is a Tudor Revival style house in Northeast Portland, Oregon. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2005.[1]

It was built in 1910, and is "a fine example of the Tudor/Jacobethan style with Classical interior influences, designed by prominent and prolific architect, Joseph Jacobberger of the firm Jacobberger and Smith."[2]

It was deemed significant for its association with William E. Boyd, the owner and general manager of the Benson Hotel in Portland for 36 years, who lived in the house for 28 years.[2]
