Willett House

The Willett House is a historic house at 6563 Mount Holly Road, about 1.5 miles (2.4 km) east of Lisbon, Arkansas. The single story wood frame house was built in 1926 by Scott and Mary Willett, and represents a well-preserved local example of Craftsman styling. The house is L-shaped, with two intersecting gable roof sections. It is sheathed in novelty siding, and has two interior chimneys. The northern facade features a wide hip roof extending over a porch supported by six battered wooden columns decorated with false battens. This porch wraps around the side elevations. The rest of the roof line has exposed rafter ends, and is further decorated with triangular knee brackets at the corners. The property also includes four outbuildings, including a c. 1900s barn.[2]
