Adrian Fletcher Residence

The Adrian Fletcher Residence is a historic house at 6725 Washington (East Huntsville) Road in Fayetteville, Arkansas. It is a single-story stone and wood structure with a shallow-pitched gable roof, set near the north side of an 80-acre (32 ha) parcel of land on the south side of East Huntsville Road. It is divided roughly into three sections, consisting of the main house, an open breezeway, and a carport. Built in 1957, it is a significant early work of E. Fay Jones, a protégé of Frank Lloyd Wright; it was his first commission completed after official recognition as an architect, and it became a showcase of his work, being written up and photographed for several magazines.[2]
