The John Tyler House is a historic house at 242-250 East Main Street in Branford, Connecticut. It is a 2-1/2 story wood frame structure, five bays wide, with a side gable roof, a large central chimney, and clapboard siding. A rear leanto section, added at an unknown (but probably 18th century) date, gives the house a typical New England saltbox shape. The house is estimated to have been built about 1710 for John Tyler, Jr. It is one of Branford's small number of 18th-century houses.[2]
The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988.[1]
