The Doit W. McClellan Lustron House is a historic home in Jackson, Alabama. It was built in 1949 by J. P. McKee of the McKee Construction Company, to attract more people into getting their own Lustron houses.

The Lustron House was a then new technique of building houses. It started after the Second World War when the shortage of houses for the returning GI soldiers became apparent. As an answer, the inventor and industrialist Carl Strandlund came up with the idea of using prefabricated enameled steel instead of the traditional wood and plaster.

The Doit W. McClellan Lustron House is one of the only two Lustron houses in Jackson, and of the 2495 to have ever been made in the world.
