The Thomas Cook House is a historic house at 21 College Hill Road in Somerville, Massachusetts. Built c. 1850, it is the only surviving Greek Revival farmhouse on the west side of the city. The 2.5 story wood frame building has its gables enclosed with pediment, and it has wide corner pilasters. Its owner, Thomas Cook, owned a modest farm, which lasted well into the 1860s; it was subdivided and housing built on it between 1884 and c. 1910. The building originally fronted on North Street, but was moved to its present location when the area was subdivided.[2]
The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.[1]
