Home for Sale at 104 Limestone in Leslie, AR for $40,000

104 Limestone | SEARCY COUNTY

$40,000 | 2 Beds | 1,028 Sq. Ft.

Step back in time with this rare “Pioneer Era” Saddlebag-style home in historic Leslie AR! According to the Sellers, this remarkable home was built in 1854, placing its origins before the Civil War. The original two-room layout features a living room & bedroom separated by a central chimney, with each room having its own front door opening to a front porch. Though the porch is gone, it could be restored. The home also features an upstairs area that could serve as one large bedroom with multiple beds, plus a small room at the top of the stairs. A distinctive feature is the original “nogging” construction, a historic building method (1840–1890) using handmade, on-site fired clay bricks as filler between wood wall studs. An unfinished rear addition was being remodeled to become a bathroom and eat-in kitchen when the Sellers decided to list. Property backs up to city park, is within walking distance to Cove Creek, & a short drive to Little Red River. A truly unique piece of Arkansas history with restoration potential! CARMLS 26037689 Directions to property: From the Leslie, AR post office on Main Street, follow Main Street south for 0.32 miles and turn R onto Limestone Street. 2nd house on the L. Sign is up.
