The Edward Taylor McConnell House is a historic house at 302 South Fulton Street in Clarksville, Arkansas. It is a two-story wood frame structure, built in 1869 for use as a school and Masonic lodge. It was enlarged in 1876 for conversion to a private residence, and given Folk Victorian style, notably in the delicate spindlework of its front porch. THe latter work was done for Edward Taylor McConnell, a prominent local businessman and figure in the Brooks-Baxter War.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2001.[1]
