About this home

Add your families history to this wonderful historic home built in 1888 by Elisha Baxter, the 10th Governor of AR. Offering approximately 3,000 square feet of refined living space, the main house features 3 generous bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, with fresh paint throughout and nearly all new windows that flood the home with natural light. Including brand-new solar panels for energy efficiency and sustainability. Out back, you'll find a beautifully landscaped patio entertainment area with a charming pergola, perfect for relaxing. One of the standout features is the detached artist studio/apartment, complete with its own bedroom, full bathroom, and workshop, ideal for guests, rental income, or a home business. This iconic property is more than a home, it's a chance to own a true piece of Arkansas history, just steps from downtown shops, restaurants, and the vibrant arts and cultural scene of historic Batesville.
