The Benjamin Hibbard Residence is a historic house at 5-7 Gerry Street in Stoneham, Massachusetts, United States. It is one of a few well-preserved 19th-century double houses in Stoneham. The two-story wood-frame house was built c. 1850, and features double brackets along its cornice, pilastered corners, and a decorated porch covering the twin entrances in the center of the main facade. The house is typical of modest worker residences built at that time. Its only well-documented occupant, Benjamin Hibbard, was a carriage driver in the 1870s and 1880s.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.[1]
