The Frierson House is a historic house at 1112 South Main Street in Jonesboro, Arkansas. It is a two-story wood-frame structure, with a hip roof pierced by gabled dormers. The main facade is covered by a two-story porch with Ionic columns, with a single-story porch on the side with Doric columns. The main entrance is flanked by sidelight windows and topped by a multilight transom, and is set in a recessed paneled entry framed by pilasters. Its construction date is uncertain, but is placed between 1870 and 1910 based on architectural evidence. It is a well-preserved example of a post-Civil War "town house".[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973.[1]
