The house at 343 Highland Avenue is a historic two-family house in Somerville, Massachusetts. The 2.5-story wood-frame Queen Anne style house was built c. 1880 as commuter housing. The house features jigsaw-cut bargeboard decoration on the porches, and paired brackets in the eaves and gables. It was built on land that had been part of a brickyard, which was subdivided for development in the 1870s.[2]

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