William G. Harrison House is a historic residence in Nashville, Georgia. It is also known as the Eulalie Taylor House and is located at 313 South Bartow Street. It was built in 1904 and is a one-story frame Queen Anne-style house with Folk Victorian details.

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on January 30, 1995. It was deemed architecturally significant "as a good and exceptionally intact example of a Queen Anne-type cottage with Folk Victorian detailing built at the turn of the [20th] century". Features consistent with the Queen Anne cottage style are:

characteristic square layout with projecting gables to front and side

rooms are asymmetrical and there is no central hallway

pyramidal roof (hipped roof would also be consistent)

interior-located chimney

built in early 1900s in a rural area (while also popular in both urban and rural areas in 1880s and 1890s)

William G. Harrison (1868–1923), a prominent local lawyer and businessman, had the home built and lived in it until his death.
