The Moses Brewer House, also known as the Goulding House, is a historic late First Period house at 88 Concord Road in Sudbury, Massachusetts. The oldest portion of this 2-1/2 story timber frame house was built c. 1720-30, and was apparently moved to its present site from its original location in Wayland sometime in the 18th century. It probably began as a "two cell" house (five bays wide and one deep) with central chimney, to which the rear leanto and a "Beverly jog" (a leanto portion that extends beyond the side of the house) were added later. The house underwent a major restoration in the 1920s. It has an original dog-leg staircase that ascends all the way into the attic, a relative rarity.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.[1]
