Tom Watkins House

Location
  
Jct. of Oak and Race Sts., Searcy, Arkansas

The Tom Watkins House is a historic house at Oak and Race Streets in Searcy, Arkansas. It is a two story brick structure, with a cross-gabled tile roof and a concrete foundation. A porch extends across part of the front and beyond the left side, forming a carport. The main roof and porch roof both feature exposed rafter tails in the Craftsman style, and there are small triangular brackets in the gable ends. The house, a fine local example of Craftsman architecture, was built about 1920 to a design by Charles L. Thompson.

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1991.
