The Andrew Newman House is a historic house in Cambridge, Massachusetts. It is a 1+12-story wood-frame structure, five bays wide, with a central chimney and an entrance sheltered by an enclosed vestibule. Built in 1823, this single story wood-frame house is one of the oldest houses in the Cambridgeport area of the city. The house is also unusual for its construction date, since it is a Georgian style Cape house, as opposed to the then-prevalent Federal style. Its first owner was a ropemaker. [2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982. [1]
