The Gustavus G. Prescott House is a historic house at 65—67 Perkins Street in Somerville, Massachusetts. It is a rare five-bay center-entry Greek Revival house to survive in East Somerville. The 2.5 story wood frame house was built in the 1840s, along with a matching building at 69-71, which has lost historical integrity. The owner, Gustavus Prescott, was a Charlestown merchant who is said to have operated an inn on the premises.[2]

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