The Luke Richardson House is a historic house at 204 Hancock Road in Dublin, New Hampshire. The 2-1/2 story wood frame house was built c. 1820 by Luke Richardson, son of early settler Abijah Richardson, Sr. The house has vernacular Greek Revival styling, with corner pilasters and a wraparound porch. Luke Richardson operated a gristmill and sawmill on a nearby property, and was instrumental in establishing a Trinitarian Congregational church in Dublin in 1827. Later owners include Charles F. Appleton, who built a hydroelectric facility on Wilder Brook and provided Dublin with its first electric service, and artist Tom Blackwell, who used the barn on the property as his studio.

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.
