The E. R. Shields House, at 351 St. Patrick in Tonopah, Nevada, United States, was built in 1904. It includes Late Victorian details in a largely "Neo-Colonial" design. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.

A survey of Nye County historic properties identified it as significant "for its architecture as one of the best preserved, well-crafted wood frame houses in Tonopah" and also for its association with Tonopah merchant E. R. Shields, who lived in Tonopah from 1902 to 1919.[1]
