The Roome–Stearns House is a historic building in Portland, Oregon, United States. It is the best and most unaltered remaining example of a modest, cottage-scale Queen Anne house in the Irvington neighborhood, exhibiting elegant Eastlake details on the interior. It was built in 1893 by the Portland Cottage Building Association, a short-lived company that developed several cottage-type homes in the area, leaving its imprint on west Irvington.[3]

The house was entered on the National Register of Historic Places in 1992.[4]
