The Ezekiel Kelsey House is a historic house at 429 Beckley Road in Berlin, Connecticut. It is a 2-1/2 story wood frame structure, three large bays wide, with a large central chimney and a centered entry. It is one room deep, with a leanto section added to the rear, giving the house a saltbox appearance. The second story overhangs the first by several inches on three sides.
The house was probably built c. 1760 by Ezekiel Kelsey, who was the sixth of eleven children born to John Kelsey and Mary Buck. Ezekiel was born in Wethersfield, Connecticut on January 16, 1713. He died on April 12, 1795 in Berlin, Connecticut.
The Ezekiel Kelsey House was added to the National Register of Historic Places on September 16, 1977. The home of Ezekiel Kelsey's brother, Enoch Kelsey is also a historic home, in Newington, Connecticut.
