The Frank B. Hopewell House is a historic house at 301 Waverley Avenue in Newton, Massachusetts. The large 2+12-story brick building was designed by Boston architect George Sidbottom and built in 1919. It is the most intact and best preserved of several large early 20th century Colonial Revival estate houses in the city. Frank Hopewell, for whom it was built, worked for a manufacturing sales firm, and was treasurer and director of the Sanford Mills.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.[1]
