The Jackson–Herget House is a historic house at 206 South 4th Street in Paragould, Arkansas. It is a 2+12-story wood-frame structure, clad in aluminum siding. It has asymmetrical massing typical of the Queen Anne period, with a variety of gables, projecting sections, porches, and a three-story tower topped with a steeply pitched hip roof and wrought iron railing. It is one of the finest Queen Anne houses in Greene County, despite the aluminum siding, which was added in such a way to match the earlier clapboarding and without destroying some of the trim.

Significance

[edit]

The house is notable as the home of Richard Jackson, one of Paragould's leading businessmen and civic boosters.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1992.[1] It is protected by The Arkansas Historic Preservation Program which identifies, evaluates, registers and preserves the State's Historic and Cultural Resources including the Jackson–Herget House.
