Euphrasie House was a pre-war Spanish Mission style convent in Hamilton East, New Zealand.

Only St Mary's Convent Chapel remains. It was designed in 1926 by Hamilton architect Jack Chitty. In 1930 a marble altar and a pair of angels, with a cluster of electric lights in a crown, were added.[1] In 2017, the Euphrasie House was demolished,[2] with exception of the chapel.
