The Harris House is a historic house at 6507 Fourche Dam Pike in Little Rock, Arkansas. It is a single-story stuccoed structure, designed in an ecelctic interpretation of Spanish Revival architecture. Prominent features include a circular tower at one corner, a parapet obscuring its sloping flat roof, and a port-cochere with a segmented-arch opening supported by battered wooden columns. It was built in 1924 for Florence and Porter Field Harris, to their design and probably the work of Porter Harris, a master plasterer known for his work on the Arkansas State Capitol.[1]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1998.
