The Coger House is a historic house on Main Street in Evening Shade, Arkansas. It is a two-story wood-frame structure, fronted by a two-story flat-roof porch set on a sandstone foundation. The house was built c. 1870 by Polk Jones, but owned for many years by Claude Coger, owner of the Sharp County Record. Originally a somewhat vernacular Greek Revival in its style, later alterations (including the front porch woodwork) give the house a more Victorian feel.
The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.
