Elizabeth White House is a historic home in Sumter, Sumter County, South Carolina. It was built about 1854, and is a 1 1/2-story vernacular Greek Revival cottage. The front facade features a pedimented one-story portico supported by four square columns. It was the home of artist Elizabeth White (1883-1976). Under the provisions of White's will, the property was transferred to the Sumter Gallery of Art for use as an art gallery.[2][3]

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.[1]
