The Edward Dodge House is a historic house at 70 Sparks Street in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The 2+1⁄2-story wood-frame house was built in 1878 to a design by Longfellow and Clark. It has asymmetrical massing typical of Queen Anne styling, and also has a style of half-timbering on its upper levels that was popular in England in the 1860s.

The exterior surfaces have a variety of textures, created by different sheathing types, including vertical boards, wood paneling, and brick patternwork. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.
