Captain James Goodwin/Eustis House is a historic house at 1 Elm Street in Wakefield, Massachusetts.
It was built circa 1760 by Captain James Goodwin and subsequently added onto by James Eustis and other families since. The town records were destroyed in the late eighteenth century and thus the oldest map to show the house is 1790. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.
