The Timothy Corey House No. 1 is a historic house at 808 Washington Street in Brookline, Massachusetts. This 2-1/2 story wood frame house was built c. 1806 for Deacon Timothy Corey, cofounder of the first Baptist Church in Brookline. The Corey family were prominent landowners in the area, for whom Corey Hill is named. The house is a typical Federal-style house, five bays wide and two deep, with a side gable roof. A single story porch extends across the front, which was probably added c. 1920.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.[1]
