The Antonio Torres House is a historic house in San Lorenzo, Grant County, New Mexico. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988. The house was built around 1930 by Antonio Torres and his wife, Josefina Ancheta.

It is located about {{convert|200|ft|m}} north of the former Highway 90 (which is now New Mexico State Road 152) just west of the Mimbres River bridge. From the 1920s on, the two operated for thirty years the Black Range station, located {{convert|.5|mi|km}} east on Highway 90.{{cite web|url={{NRHP url|id=88000505}}|title=National Register of Historic Places Inventory/Nomination: Antonio Torres House |publisher=National Park Service|author=Chris Wilson |date=1988 |accessdate=January 31, 2019}} With {{NRHP url|id=88000505|photos=y|title=accompanying photo from 1982}}

The house is deemed to be Vernacular New Mexico in style. Although the house is built of adobe with corrugated metal roofing, it has a rectangular plan and symmetry reflective of the Classical-derived "Hipped Box" type of architecture, of which it was deemed a "good example".

It was listed on the National Register as part of a 1988 study of historic resources in the Mimbres Valley of Grant County.{{cite web|url={{NRHP url|id=64000518}}|title=National Register of Historic Places Inventory/Nomination: Historic Resources of the Mimbres Valley in Grant County |publisher=National Park Service|author=Chris Wilson |date=September 10, 1988 |accessdate=January 31, 2019}}
