The Rector House is a historic house at 603 West Quitman Street in Heber Springs, Arkansas. It is a roughly rectangular single-story wood-frame structure, with a gable-on-hip roof that is on two sides extended at a lower slope across a wraparound porch. The porch is supported by Tuscan columns set on brick piers. To the right of the main entrance (which is accessed via the porch) is a projecting gabled section, with a small square window in the gable, flanked by vents and topped by a mini-gable. The house was built in 1915–16, and is considered a good example of the "Free Classic" form of Queen Anne architecture.[1]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2008.
