historic house
Explanation:
This is the name such a house would have in the US.

A historic house generally meets several criteria before being listed by an official body as "historic." Generally the building is at least a certain age, depending on the rules for the individual list. A second factor is that the building be in recognizably the same form as when it became historic. Third is a requirement that either an event of historical importance happened at the site, or that a person of historical significance was associated with the site, or that the building itself is important for its architecture or interior.

As far as I know, many of “дома-памятники” have nothing to do with monuments. They are simply some houses in which someone famous person (a writer, a poet, an artist, a dancer, etc.) has lived.
