The Chamberlain-Flagg House is an historic house at 2 Brookshire Drive in Worcester, Massachusetts. The timber frame house is believed to be one of the oldest buildings in the city, although its construction date is unclear. It is thought to have been built sometime after 1742, on land that belonged to the family of Jacob Chamberlain, an early settler. By 1800 the house belonged to Elisha Flagg, whose wife was from the Chamberlain family. Stylistically the house resembles those of the earliest area settlers.
The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.
