About this property
The Grate House — 1947 Charm w/ Marble, Hardwood & Fenced Yard by Harding
Step inside the Grate House — where 1940s character meets modern comfort, just minutes from Harding University
About This Space
The Grate House is just a 3‑minute drive (or less!) to Harding University, Harding Academy, Searcy High School, and downtown Searcy.
Originally built in the 1940s, this charming home has been fully remodeled inside, blending modern comforts with historic touches — from its marble countertops and tile floors to original hardwood, reclaimed tongue‑and‑groove boards, and the unique floor grate that inspired its name.
This 2‑bedroom, 1‑bath home features a full kitchen, formal dining area, laundry access, and a comfortable living room with a pull‑out couch. Outside, enjoy a fenced backyard with a spacious patio, grill, fire pit, fire table, and outdoor seating.
The Space
The Grate House comfortably sleeps up to 6 guests:
Bedroom 1: King bed
Bedroom 2: Queen bed
Living Room: Pull‑out couch (sleeps 2)
Extra Option: Queen air mattress available upon request
Guest Access
Guests have full use of the entire home, accessed via a smart lock on the back door. The backyard is easily reached from the driveway.
Other Things to Note
Well‑behaved, house‑trained pets are welcome for a small pet fee. A doggy door leads from the back door to the secure, fenced yard.

About the host
Hosted by Tyler Curtis
We’re a husband-and-wife team calling Searcy, Arkansas home. I grew up here, and my wife is originally from Georgetown, Texas. We met at Harding University and fell in love with this community’s small-town charm.
I work as a general contractor and spend my free time playing sports, hunting, and fishing. My wife practices physical therapy at the local clinic and, when she’s off, you’ll find her mountain biking, snowboarding, or sipping coffee with our doodle by her side.
Together, we pour our passions into hosting. I build the shell of each home, and my wife infuses it with warmth, character, and thoughtful touches. Our goal is to create a relaxing, welcoming space where families can unwind, explore, and make lifelong memories.
