The O'Kane-Jacobs House is a historic house on Rossville Road in Altus, Arkansas. It is a single story wood-frame structure, with a single pile and an original ell extending to the west. It has a cross-gable roof and weatherboard siding. Its front is sheltered by a recessed porch supported by round columns, with a distinctive latticework frieze. Built in 1881 by Francis Paine, it was purchased in 1891 by Colonel W. S. O'Kane, a prominent local businessman who owned orchards and a fruit shipping business.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1991.[1]
