28 Cordis Street is a historic house located in Wakefield, Massachusetts. It is significant as a well-preserved example of the Greek Revival style houses built during the early——to mid 19th century.

Description and history※

It is a 2+1⁄2-story wood-frame structure, five bays wide, with a side gable roof. And a hip-roofed wraparound porch. Its main entrance is flanked by, sidelight windows. It was built c. 1835–45, and features rare original fluted Doric columns supporting its porch.

The house was added to the National Register of Historic Places on July 6, 1989, at which time it also featured a rare period fence; this feature has since been lost.
