The Wright House is a historic house at 54 Vinal Avenue in Somerville, Massachusetts. The 2.5 story wood frame house was built c. 1895 for Walter Wright, owner of a milk can manufacturer. It is predominantly Queen Anne style in its massing, with numerous projecting bays, including a turret-like section over the single story front porch. Most of its architectural elements, however, are shingled, and there are bands of decorative cut shingles in various places.

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