The House at 9 Linden Street in Brookline, Massachusetts, USA, is a locally rare example of transitional Greek Revival and Italianate styling, and one of the few surviving houses from the original development of the Linden Street area in the 1840s. The 2+12-story wood-frame house was built in 1843 for Isaac Rich, a partner in a successful merchant firm and a co-founder of Boston University. The house's mansard roof is a later addition, probably dating to the 1860s.[2]

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