The Robert M. Stark House is a historic house at 176 Main Street in Waltham, Massachusetts. This 2+1⁄2-story house was designed by local architect George Strout, and built in 1890 for Robert Stark, a lawyer and local politician. At the time, the east side of Main Street had become a fashionable address for the upper middle class. The house has high quality Queen Anne style, including various projecting sections and gables, a three-story turret with conical roof, bands of decorative shingles, and windows of varying sizes and shapes with a wide variety of framing treatments.
