The Charles H. Burgess House is a historic house at 17 Whitney Road in Quincy, Massachusetts. The 2+12-story wood-frame house was built c. 1903 by Charles H. Burgess, a real estate developer and auction-house owner. The house exhibits both Queen Anne and Shingle styling, with Queen Anne-like projecting corner bay, and a wraparound porch supported by paired columns. Decorative cut shingles make a string course under a slight flare at the base of the second floor.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.[1]
