The Ashley-Alexander House is a historic house at 3514 Walkers Corner Road (Arkansas Highway 161) in Scott, Arkansas. It is a 1-1/2 story clapboarded log structure, built out of hand-hewn cypress logs and topped by a gable roof, set near the east side of the road. A porch projects from the center of the five-bay facade, with a two-window dormer above, and flanking shed-roof dormers flanking it on the main roof. The house was built about 1835 by Chester Ashley, one of Arkansas's early United States Senators, and a prominent lawyer and local landowner.[2]
The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1976.[1]
