The Eliphalet Spurr House is a historic house at 103 Walnut Street in Brookline, Massachusetts, United States. The 2-1/2 story wood frame house was built in 1798 by Eliphalet Spurr, who was locally prominent as one of the first operators of a local coach service, providing transport to Boston (which then required a roundabout trip via Roxbury and the Boston Neck). It is the oldest building in the Pill Hill, and one of the town's few 18th century Georgian houses.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.[1]
