The Alexander Foster House is a historic house at 45 Laurel Street in Somerville, Massachusetts. Built c. 1860, the three story wood frame house is one of the city's finest Italianate houses. It has typical Italianate features, include extended eaves with paired brackets, and an oculus window in the front gable. It also has corner pilasters, and windows with bracketed lintels and sills. The house was built for Alexander Foster, a lumber dealer, and was one of the first houses to be built in that area of Somerville's Spring Hill area.[2]
The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.[1]
