The James P. Johnson House is a building and property in Thompsons Station, Tennessee, United States, that dates from 1854 and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988. It has also been known as Laurel Hill. It includes Greek Revival and Central passage plan and other architecture.
According to a 1988 study, the house "is notable for its association with the Laurel Hill Stock Farm, a famous livestock farm of the 19th century. The farm was begun in the 1830s by Thomas Johnson and later inherited by his son, James P. Johnson, in 1853. During the 1850s the Laurel Hill Stock farm was expanded to over 500 acres and it became known as one of the best livestock breeding farms in middle Tennessee."
