The Thomas Aspinwall Davis House is a historic house at 29 Linden Place in Brookline, Massachusetts. The house was built in 1844, by Thomas Aspinwall Davis, later a mayor of Boston. It was moved to its present location early in the 20th century. The house is predominantly Italianate in style, with three bays across, hooded front windows, and a cupola. The central front gable is decorated with Gothic bargeboard, and the building supposedly had a more ornately-decorated porch before its move in 1903. The house was one of the first to be built in the Linden Street area, which was developed by Davis.[2]

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