The Ezekiel Sawin House is a historic house at 44 William Street in Fairhaven, Massachusetts. The two-story wood frame house was built between 1840 and 1844 by Ezekiel Sawin, president of the Fairhaven Bank. It is an elaborate and distinctive expression of Greek Revival styling, with a wraparound porch supported by Ionic columns, and wide corner pilasters. The house also has some Federal elements including a balustrade at the edge of the roof.

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.
