The space Constructed in 1910, Grandmother’s House is a historic craftsman style home that was built by the Murphy family (also known as Murphy’s Oil). It is a 2700 plus square foot 2 story stucco home that has withstood the test of time with grace and style. It has been lovingly given new life, and we are happy to share it for many to enjoy. Grandmother’s House sits in the culturally and socioeconomically diverse historic downtown lot and block neighborhood of Texarkana, Arkansas, just blocks from the Texas and Arkansas state line. Multiple restaurants 1 to 4 miles away. It is just a few blocks to the downtown historic and entertainment district. Approximately 2 miles south from 130. Step back in time with a stay at Grandmother’s House. It has been decorated with many antique and vintage items collected from the families associated with Pecan Properties. Many of the items came from our own grandmothers’ homes. We hope that everyone staying here recognizes something they remember from their own past whether it be from their childhood at their grandparents’ home or other friend or family’s residence. The goal was to create a unique space with a sense of nostalgia. We hope that every decade from the 20th century is represented here but with the ultimate result of a home that is inviting and comfortable. Grandmother’s House has many spacious rooms, a large yard (not fenced), and a phenomenal front porch that has approximately 850 square feet of space with tables, chairs, and rockers. Inside, the home has two living areas. A fireplace in the formal living area with electric logs can be used with or without heat.
