The Edgar Holloway House is a historic house in Gilroy, California. It was built in 1903 for Edgar and Dora Holloway, whose grandparents had taken part in the California Gold Rush.[2] After they died in 1912–1913, the house was sold out of the Holloway family. It belonged to the Barshinger family until 1949, and it was later repurposed as a battered women's shelter.[2]

The house was designed by William H. Weeks in the Colonial Revival and Victorian architectural styles.[2] It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since January 28, 1982.[1]
