Walk up the covered front porch and immediately feel the character that defines this 1959 cabin: a vaulted living area with wood-frame construction and a metal roof, set on a level 0.44-acre lot along North Double Springs Road. The interior's modest footprint (918 sq ft) is accentuated by the vaulted ceiling in the main living space, creating an airy sense of openness uncommon in homes this size. Newer appliances in the compact kitchen and a straightforward floor plan make this property easy to live in as-is, while leaving room for cosmetic updates to add value.
Outside, the property’s acreage is the standout. Mature shade trees and a generous yard give children's play, gardening, or a future addition plenty of room. An 18x20 metal shed currently serves as a single detached carport and covered storage, and a 240-sqft A-frame bonus structure sits on the lot—ideal for a workshop, studio, guest suite conversion, or supplementary rental unit subject to approvals. The lot's level topography and frontage on North Double Springs Road provide uncomplicated access and clear development potential under the existing Residential-Agricultural (R-A) zoning.
Systems are simple and practical: public water and electric are available, gas is present, and the home uses ductless heating and cooling. A septic system is in place; buyers should confirm condition during inspection. The home presents an affordable entry point for owner-occupants, university-affiliated buyers, or investors targeting rental demand from the nearby University of Arkansas (approximately 4.5 miles).
From an investment perspective, recent local sales and the property's own recent transaction history support steady value retention—most comparable sales in the immediate area cluster between $115K and $130K, with a midpoint valuation near $122,500. Farmington School District schools carry strong ratings, and recreation such as Lake Wedington is within regional reach, further broadening appeal. Bring a vision for modest upgrades and you'll find a property with practical bones, flexible outbuildings, and a rare half-acre footprint so close to Fayetteville.
