419 NW 2Nd Street NW

Custom built and lovingly maintained by the original family for over 50 years, this 1.5 story brick residence spans nearly half an acre across three city lots (150' x 142') in the heart of Walnut Ridge. Crafted over 50 years ago by builder Fred Kellow, this home showcases an extraordinary standard of quality and architectural character. The sprawling front porch welcomes you with historic reclaimed brick from the old Citizens Bank building in Hoxie, a signature design element featured thoughtfully throughout the property. Step inside to a grand entryway accented by marble flooring and stained glass details that set the stage for the rest of the residence. The main living area centers around a captivating family den wrapped in Pecky Cypress wall paneling harvested locally from the Brecklein Farm in the Cache River area, complete with accent ceiling beams and a focal brick fireplace. Nearby, the custom kitchen is a showcase of fine woodworking, featuring solid cherry cabinetry hand built on-site, a JennAir style drop-in cooktop with an indoor grill module, and a built in wall oven set within a matching reclaimed brick surround. A dedicated breakfast room with hand finished wainscoting and a formal living room anchored by a sunlit bay window provide versatile, comfortable spaces for the holidays, daily living, and entertaining guests. The main level floor plan offers a private primary suite complete with dual walk in closets and a vintage baby blue tile en suite bath. A secondary full bathroom showcases classic green tile styling, located alongside an additional main floor bedroom showcasing pristine solid wood paneling and double closets. Additionally on the main level there is a dedicated laundry room with a sink and a walk in pantry with hidden access to under stair storage. Upstairs, you will find additional spacious bedrooms fitted with custom hand crafted built-in desks, double closets, solid wood paneling, heavy six panel interior doors, and direct access to expansive walk in floored attic storage. Out back, the property features a detached 16x20 shop, the original workshop, with plumbing and electric, operated by Mr. Kellow during the construction of the home providing an ideal setup for storage or future MIL suite. The oversized two car garage is deep enough to accommodate full sized vehicles and is finished with heavy stained plywood walls, built-in shelving, and three dedicated walk in storage closets. Modern mechanical updates offering peace of mind, including Window World windows and storm doors installed within the last five years with a transferable warranty, three exterior HVAC units (2018, 2017/2017, and 2025), dual electric water heaters (2017/2019), and a sprawling lawn with established trees.
