The Kenelum Baker House is a historic house at 4 Norwood Street in Winchester, Massachusetts. This small 1.5 story wood frame house was built in 1856 by builder Kenelum Baker as his own home. It is a rare well-preserved example of vernacular Italianate styling, with a shallow-pitch gable roof that has a broad overhanging cornice. The center entry is flanked by rectangular window bays, and is framed by a portico with a projecting gable roof, beneath which are a pair of narrow round-arch windows. A projecting bay also appears on the side of the house, which faces the street.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.[1]
