Historic Old Stone School House 1 +/- Acre in Dowdy, Independence County, AR

Here is your chance to own a piece of Independence County history. Known locally as the Old Stone School House at Dowdy, this landmark property carries with it over a century of stories and community heritage.

The original school was established by the Cumberland Presbyterian Church in 1859. After the building burned in 1926 or 1927, the current stone structure was constructed in 1928, showcasing craftsmanship and resilience. The school continued to serve the community until 1946, when Stone School was annexed by Cord. From there, the building found a new life, serving as a church into the 1980s.

Today, the property sits on 1 +/- acre and offers a rare opportunity for restoration, preservation, or creative repurposing. Both water and electric are on the property (not currently turned on), and the building is being sold as is.

This is truly a unique gem, perfect for those with an appreciation of history, architecture, or the vision to breathe new life into a property with such deep local roots.
