The Attwood-Hopson House is a historic house on the east side of Arkansas Highway 8 on the northern fringe of New Edinburg, Arkansas. The house was built c. 1890 by William Attwood, a local merchant. It was built in the then-fashionable Queen Anne style, but was significantly remade in the Craftsman style in 1917 by builder Emmett Moseley. It is a 1+1⁄2-story wood-frame house built on a foundation of poured concrete and brick piers. Its roof is a multi-level gable-on-hip design, with shed dormers on each elevation. A porch wraps around three sides of the building, and is extended at the back to provide a carport. The interior was not significantly remade in 1917, and retains Colonial Revival details. [2]
In addition to being a distinctive local instance of Craftsman styling, the house was the first in the area to be wired for electricity at the time of its construction. [2] It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1994, [1] at which time it was owned by the Hopson family. [2]
