The Robert Munroe House is a historic house in Somerville, Massachusetts. The modest side-hall Greek Revival house was built c. 1849 for Robert Munroe, a Boston grain dealer who was an early resident of Prospect Hill (Munroe Street is named for him). The house has a full-width front porch with Ionic columns that wraps around to the right side of the house. The front entry is surrounded by sidelight and transom windows, and flanked by pilasters.[2]

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