The Governor Bellingham-Cary House Association is a historic site located in Chelsea, Massachusetts. The house, which was built in 1659, is named after two of its most notable residents, Governor Richard Bellingham and Colonel Cary. It is the oldest surviving house in Chelsea and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

The association was established to preserve and maintain the Governor Bellingham-Cary House, as well as to educate the public about its historical significance. The house and its surrounding gardens are open to the public for tours, events, and educational programs.

The house itself is a two-story, wood-framed structure with a central chimney and steeply pitched roof. The interior features a large hearth, exposed beams, and other colonial-era architectural details. The grounds include a formal garden, a vegetable garden, and a small orchard.

The Governor Bellingham-Cary House Association is run by a group of dedicated volunteers who work to maintain the house and promote its historical significance. Visitors can learn about the house's history, as well as the lives of its former residents, through exhibits, guided tours, and special events. The association also provides educational programming for school groups and other organizations.
