The Elliott House is a historic house at 303 South Third Street in Bentonville, Arkansas. It is a large three-story brick house with Italianate style, built in 1887 for Harry Elliott, who made a fortune investing in silver mines in Silver City, New Mexico. The house is distinctive for its use of brick on the interior as well as exterior walls; those on the inside are 8 inches (20 cm) thick, those outside are 16 inches (41 cm). The exterior features include seven porches, a widow's walk, and carved brackets in deeply overhanging eaves. [2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978. [1]
