The J. P. McKee Lustron House is a historic home in Jackson, Alabama. It was built in 1949 in the new technique where instead of using the traditional wood and concrete as primarily materials in house building, they used prefabricated enameled steel as an alternative. These structures became known as Lustron houses.

Lustron houses were one of the best solutions builders ever thought of right after the World War II when there was a shortage of houses for the returning soldiers. The J. P. McKee Lustron House was one of the only two examples in Jackson and of the 2495 known units to have ever been made, 20 of which is believed to be built in the state.

The J. P. McKee Lustron House was built for the local Lustron dealer, J. P. McKee. He also owned and erected the other Lustron House in the city, the Doit W. McClellan Lustron House.
