The Alfrey-Brown House (also known as the Lawson House) is a historic house located at 1001 South Washington Street in Siloam Springs, Arkansas, United States.

Description and history

It is an imposing 2-1/2 story wood-framed residence, with a hip roof pierced by large gable projections, and a porch that wraps around three sides. Although the outside has the cleaner lines of the Colonial Revival, the building's interior is richly decorated with Queen Anne-style woodwork. The house was built in 1905 by Thomas Alfrey, a local builder, and was for many years home to a John Brown, a prominent local evangelist.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on October 4, 1984.[1]
