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.
