The Sallie Chisum Robert House is a historic house in Artesia, New Mexico. It was built with cast stone in 1908 for Sallie Chisum Robert, one of Artesia's co-founders whose uncle was the cattle baron John Chisum.[2] Born in Texas, she married a German immigrant, William Robert, only to divorce him and become a homesteader in Artesia; she later moved to Roswell, New Mexico.[2] The house was designed in the Dutch Colonial Revival architectural style, with a gambrel roof.[2] It was added to New Mexico's State Register of Cultural Properties in 1977.[3] It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since March 2, 1984.[1]
