The Stephen Thompson residence is a large home at 2848 Highland Avenue for Ohio native and real estate executive Stephen Thompson.

It was designed by architect Daniel Reamer and constructed about 1910. Stephen Thompson's wife, Anna G. Thompson, died the night before the house was completed, and her funeral was held in the library of the home. Two children of their daughter, Helen T. Haughton, were born in this house. As of 1976, the house was owned by another of Thompson's daughters, Ann H. Powell.
