Overcarsh House is a historic home located at Charlotte, Mecklenburg County, North Carolina. It was built between 1879 and 1898, and is a two-story, rectangular Queen Anne style frame dwelling. It is sheathed in weatherboard, sits on a brick foundation, and has a hipped roof on the main block. It features extended gable-roofed bays, a conical-roofed tower, shallow entrance porch, and decorative gables. Its builder, Elias Overcarsh (1821–1898), was a prominent Methodist minister. The Overcarsh family owned the house until 1966.

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.
