The James H. Standish House is a historic house located at 54 Francis Street in Brookline, Massachusetts.

Built c. 1874–75, the 2+12-story house and carriage barn are rare surviving examples in Brookline of elaborate Stick style. It has Italianate massing and facade organization, as well as other typically Italianate elements such as a cupola and a bracketed and dentiled cornice. However, it also has applied Stick-style decoration above and below some of its windows.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on October 17, 1985.[1]
