The Pinkham House is a historic house at 79 Winthrop Avenue in the Wollaston Heights neighborhood of Quincy, Massachusetts. The 2+12-story wood-frame house was built in the 1870s by George Pinkham, the manager of the Wollaston Land Company, which developed Wollaston Heights, and is the only house in Quincy that has a direct association with the Pinkham family. The house is a handsome example of Second Empire styling, with a dormered flared mansard roof, quoined corners, and bracketed eaves.[2]

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