Claude Foulke House

Location
  
501 Pecan St., Texarkana, Arkansas

The Claude Folke House is a historic house at 501 Pecan Street in Texarkana, Arkansas. It is a two-story brick structure with a hip roof, set on a raised corner lot. It is one of the city's most elaborate Classical Revival structures, with a monumental temple front supported by pairs of fluted Ionic columns rising the full height of the facade. The roof has an elaborate modillioned cornice, with a small triangular pediment containing a half-round window. The interior of the house contains equally impressive woodwork. The house was built in 1903 by Claude Folke, the son of railroad baron George Foulke.

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.
