The V.R. Harris House, also known as the Mitchum House, is a historic house in Erin, Tennessee, U.S.. It was built in 1891 for Volney Rowe Harris, a businessman who served as the mayor of Erin in 1881.[2] Harris lived here with his wife, née Lizzie Garner, and their twelve children.[2] It remained in the Harris family until 1924.[2] It was purchased by the Mitchum family in 1944, and it became known as the Mitchum House as a result.[2]

The house was designed in the Queen Anne architectural style.[2] It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since August 18, 1983.[1]
