The Brelsford House (also known as The Banyans) was a historic home in Palm Beach, Florida, United States, located at 1 Lake Trail. Built between 1888 and 1903,[2] it was added to the National Register of Historic Places on May 3, 1974.[1] The Neoclassical house was destroyed in August of the following year,[2] but it remains on the Register.[1]

The house was built for E. M. Brelsford, Palm Beach's first postmaster; it was he who applied for a post office in "Palm Beach". He also founded the first store, a general store. The money to build the house came from the sale of his Palm Beach land to Henry Flagler. Brelsford is buried in Woodlawn Cemetery (West Palm Beach).[3]
