The Drury-Austin House is a historic home located at Boyds, Montgomery County, Maryland. It is a 1+12-story dwelling comprising two sections: a late-18th-century one-room plan log house (the southern half), which was doubled in size by the addition of a one-room timber-frame section in the early 19th century. The house is exemplary of the type of dwelling that characterized western Montgomery County in the earliest phase of its settlement.[2]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.[1]
