The Baker House is a historic house at 109 5th Street in North Little Rock, Arkansas. It is an L-shaped structure, 2-1/2 stories in height, with a three-story round tower at the crook of the L. A highly decorated porch is built around the tower, providing access to the entrance. Built in 1898-99, it is one of the few surviving high-style Queen Anne Victorians in the city. It was built by A. E. Colburn, a local contractor, as his private residence, and was purchased in 1916 by C. J. and Annie Baker. Baker was from 1904 to 1906 the superintendent of North Little Rock's schools.[2]
The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.[1] It is also listed in the residential section of the Argenta Historic District.
