The George Bemis House is a historic house on Chesham Road in Harrisville, New Hampshire. This two story Greek Revival house is one of a pair built for the Bemis brothers (the other is the Elbridge G. Bemis House), who owned a sawmill and woodworking business in Chesham. The well-preserved house has typical Greek Revival styling including corner pilasters and an entry framed by sidelight windows and a heavy entablature.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988.[1]
