Peaceful Pocahontas

I live in Central Arkansas with my husband and two kids. I love traveling, cooking and spending time with friends and family.

My great-grandfather built this house in the 1930s using stones he found on his land. My grandmother and her 12 brothers and sisters were all raised in this house. I grew up visiting my grandmother who lived next door and I loved hearing stories about what it was like back when there were no other houses or buildings and everything was pasture. I loved hearing about how my great-grandmother would honk her car horn to signal to all of the kids helping in the fields to come in for supper. I adore the story about how my great-grandfather would drink whisky in the parlor with the doctor while my great-grandmother was laboring in her bedroom waiting to give birth and how mad she would be at both of them. Recently my great-aunt told us about how she used to climb out her bedroom window upstairs and sit on the roof and watch the stars. This house has witnessed so much love that I was compelled to buy it when I had the chance. Renovating it has been a labor of love and my mother did most of the work. I came in at the end to give my opinions on furniture, door handles and fixtures. We are excited to share the charm and comfort of this home with visitors.

Located 60 seconds from the highway, yet still tucked deep inside a very quiet neighborhood, this house will give you the best of both worlds. A peaceful place to spend time and sleep well, and easy access to "town" where you will find lots of restaurants, shops and charm. Pocahontas is a unique town with amazing natural resources all around. There are 5 rivers flowing through this town and it is a great home base for the nature lover.
