The Edward Braddock House is a historic house at 112 Highland Avenue in Winchester, Massachusetts. The 2.5 story wood frame house was built in 1893, and was one of a series of fashionable homes built along Highland Avenue around the time the adjacent Middlesex Fells Reservation was established. The building is extensively shingled (thus giving the eponymous style), but also has Colonial Revival feature, including its porch, which is supported by squat Tuscan columns, and wraps around to join with a porte cochere on the side of the house. The house was owned by Edward I. Braddock, an inventor with a portfolio of patents related to metals production.[2]

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