The Herman McIntire House is a historic house at 55 Dixwell Avenue in Quincy, Massachusetts. The -story wood-frame house is one of two houses built and lived in by Herman McIntire, a local realtor. This one (the other is at 21 Dixwell) is a well-preserved example of a large Shingle-style house, built in the affluent President's Hill neighborhood. The large gambrel gables are typical of the Shingle style, as are the varied window shapes.[1] Its exterior has been partially compromised by the application of siding instead of shingling (see photo).
The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.
