Lattimer House
historic house in Arkansas, United States
The Lattimer House is a historic house at Oak and Market Streets in Searcy, Arkansas. It is a two-story wood-frame structure, with a hip roof, and a variety of projecting gables and porches typical of the Queen Anne style. The upper level is clad in diamond-cut wooden shingles. A wraparound porch on the ground floor has delicately turned posts and balusters, while a projecting second-story porch has a heavier Stick-style balustrade and cornice. The house was built about 1895, and is one of Searcy's finest examples of the Queen Anne style.
The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1991.

Why this record matters
The phrase “historic house in Arkansas, United States” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.
Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 6, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q24969836. Authority coordinates are 35.250, -91.734. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1895 and 1991.
Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
