Asher and Mary Isabelle Richardson House

The 1911 Asher and Mary Isabelle Richardson House is located on U.S. Highway 83 in the Dimmit County community of Asherton in the U.S. state of Texas.

[3] Asher Richardson (1855–1914) was a Dimmit County rancher and horticulturist who founded Asherton, Texas.

A native of Snow Hill, Maryland, Richardson settled in Dimmit County after his 1877 discharge from the United States Army.

[4][5] Richardson contracted with San Antonio architect Alfred Giles to design the two-story family home as the centerpiece of Asherton.

The Beaux-Arts and Prairie School style house was constructed of hand-cut local sandstone and features large projecting eaves.
