The Walter Keene House is a historic house at 28 High Street in Stoneham, Massachusetts. The  2 1⁄2-story wood-frame building was built c. 1900, and is an excellent local example of a transitional Queen Anne-Colonial Revival house. Its hip roof and front porch are typically Colonial Revival, while the left-side turret and turned posts and balusters are Queen Anne. The house was built Walter Keene, a local shoe salesman and banker who was responsible for developing much of the surrounding area. Stoneham's Keene Street is named for him.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.[1]
