The Charles Lovejoy House is a historic house at 64 Broad Street in Lynn, Massachusetts. The 2+12-story Colonial Revival mansion was built in 1893 for Doctor Charles Lovejoy, one of the founders of Lynn Hospital. It features a Palladian entrance with pilasters topped by a triangular pediment surrounding a recessed entry. The entry is flanked by wings that have two windows on the first floor, one on the second, and then gable-dormered windows at the top.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978,[1] and was included in the Diamond Historic District in 1996.[2]
