The Dr. James A. Ross House is a historic house in Pikeville, Tennessee, U.S.. It was built circa 1872 for Dr. James A. Ross, his wife Jennie Brown and their children.[2] Ross was a physician who served in the Confederate States Army during the American Civil War of 1861–1865; in the Reconstruction era, he became a real estate investor.[2] The house was purchased by Bledsoe County in 1997.[2]

The house was designed in the Folk Victorian style, a combination of Queen Anne and Italianate architectural styles.[2] It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since June 25, 1999.[1]
