The Martin Berry House is located in Pompton Plains in Pequannock Township, Morris County, New Jersey, United States. The house was built in 1720 and documented by the Historic American Buildings Survey (HABS) in 1939. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on June 19, 1973, for its significance in architecture and settlement. Built by the son of one of the first settlers to the Pompton River region, the pre-Revolutionary War building has been little altered since its construction.

Once the home of Medal of Honor recipient James R. Evans, the home was purchased by Pequannock Township for historic preservation in 2017. The Pequannock Township Historical Society, formed in 2014 and incorporated as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit in 2015, has been tasked with the maintenance of the house.
