The Ephraim Cutter House is a historic house at 4 Water Street in Arlington, Massachusetts. This 2.5 story wood frame Federal style house was built c. 1804 for Ephraim Cutter, owner of Arlington's largest mill. The house is one of the few surviving Federal period buildings in Arlington, and is notable for its elaborate entrance portico (likely a later addition), although its doorway sidelight framing is Federal in style. The house originally faced Massachusetts Avenue, but was moved back and rotated ninety degrees to face Water Street in 1915.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978,[1] and included in an expansion of the Arlington Center Historic District in 1985.[2]
