Jessie B. Smith House


The Jessie B. Smith House is a historic house located at 200 Charlotte Street in Fordyce, Arkansas.

Description and history

This single-story wood-framed house was built in about 1890, and is an excellent early instance of a center-hall-plan house, a style which was brought about by growing urbanization. The house is three bays wide and one deep, with a brick chimney at the north end. The porch which extends across the front has jigsaw-cut brackets.
The house was listed in the National Register of Historic Places on October 28, 1983.
