The Ephraim Wheeler House is a historic house at 470 Whippoorwill Lane in Stratford, Connecticut. It is a 2-1/2 story wood frame structure, five bays wide, with twin chimneys, clapboard siding, and a side gable roof. Small additions added in the 19th and 20th centuries expand the building to three sides. The main entrance is flanked by sidelight windows and sheltered by a small gable-roofed portico with round columns. The house was probably built in 1743, the year of Ephraim Wheeler's marriage, and remained in the Wheeler family in the early 20th century. The house is particularly distinctive for its period because it was built with twin chimneys rather than the more typical large central chimney.[2]
The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1992.[1]
