Steeped in history and rich with possibility, the Cherry House presents a truly rare opportunity to own one of North Little Rock’s architectural treasures. Designed by renowned architect Frank Carmean and built in 1930 for investment banker Lewis W. Cherry Jr., this distinguished 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath Colonial Revival residence offers approximately 2,300 square feet and is individually listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Set on an impressive 0.61-acre oversized double lot, the property showcases remarkable architectural details, including a grand curved staircase, original millwork, and the seldom-seen original servant’s quarters. While the home is ready for thoughtful restoration and offers an opportunity to blend modern comforts with historic character, its enduring craftsmanship, gracious proportions, and extraordinary integrity provide a foundation that simply cannot be recreated. Having remained in the hands of only three families since its construction, the Cherry House is more than a home....it’s an opportunity to preserve a meaningful piece of Arkansas history while creating a legacy of your own! Home sold AS IS/WHERE IS. Home qualifies for Historic Tax Credit
