The Whittemore House is an historic house at 267 Broadway in Arlington, Massachusetts. The Greek Revival was built c. 1850, and is the only house in Arlington with the full temple-front treatment. It as two-story fluted Doric columns supporting a projecting gable end with a fan louver in the tympanum area. The entrance is located in the rightmost of the front facade's three bays, and is framed by sidelight and transom windows. The building's corners are pilastered, and an entablature encircles the building below the roof.

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.
