John O'Hara House is a historic home located at Pottsville, Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania. It was built about 1870, and is a three-story, three bay wide stone building in the Italianate style. The front elevation features a three-story central tower. The house was built by David Yuengling of the Yuengling brewery family.
