The Simon Tiffany House, also known as the Ebenezer Tiffany House, is a Colonial and Federal style house on Darling Road in Salem, Connecticut. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.[1] It was the home of Simon Tiffany, son of Ebenezer Tiffany. The father had purchased the farm in 1786 from the state, which had seized the property because it had been owned by a Loyalist who fled during the American Revolutionary War.[2]

There are relatively rare sliding shutters for windows in the house, on the inside.[2] Another nearby building also associated with the father is known as Ebenezer Tiffany House.
