The Immaculate Conception Rectory is a historic former Roman Catholic rectory building at 108 Beach Street in Revere, Massachusetts. It is a 3+12-story Colonial Revival wood-frame structure, with a hipped slate roof and clapboard siding. The main facade is divided into three sections, the outer ones consisting of curved bays with two windows at each level, with a balustrade above at the roof level. The central section has the main entrance, sheltered by porch supported by grouped columns, with a balcony above. Three-part windows stand at the second and third level above the entrance, with a pair of gabled dormers piercing the roof. [2]

Today the building houses the Museum of the Revere Society for Cultural and Historic Preservation. [3] Immaculate Conception Church, located at 133 Beach Street, is still an active parish. [4]
