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.[2]

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

House Stark, one of the nine noble houses in the fantasy series Game of Thrones, is a reference to the Robert M. Stark House.
