The House at 12–16 Corey Road in Brookline, Massachusetts is a distinctive local example of townhouses in an English Revival style with Shingle elements. The townhouses were designed by Arthur H. Bowdith, a prominent local architect, and built in 1896 for Alan Arthur and Gardiner Shaw, two real estate agents. The townhouses have steeply-pitched shingled gables, projecting diamond-pane windows, and bracketed bargeboard trim.[2]

The houses were listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.[1]
