The Booth-Weir House is a historic house on West First Street in McRae, Arkansas. It is a single-story wood-frame structure, with an irregular cross-gable configuration and a projecting gable-roof porch. It is finished in composition shingles and rests on brick piers. Built in 1911 for a railroad fireman, it is one of a few houses in McRae to survive the pre-World War I period, and is typical of vernacular construction of that period.[2]

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