The Ebenezer Heath House is a historic house at 30 Heath Street in Brookline, Massachusetts. The two-story wood-frame house was built in 1794 by John Heath for his son Ebenezer and daughter-in-law Hannah (Williams) Heath. The Heaths were related to the Sewall family, who were major local landowners in the 18th century. The house is five bays wide, with a hip roof pierced by a pair of chimneys behind the center roofline. The main entrance is flanked by pilasters, and topped by a four-light transom window and dentillated triangular pediment. [2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985. [1]
