The Bell House is a historic house at 303 West Cherry Street in Jonesboro, Arkansas. It is a two story wood frame structure, built in 1895 by J. V. Bell, owner of one of Jonesboro's first bookstores. The house is an elaborately-decorated Queen Anne Victorian, with an asymmetrical arrangement of projecting bays, gables, and porches. The front porch has a delicate spindle-work frieze, and is supported by turned columns. Different types of cut shingles give variety to the wall surfaces.[2]
The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1976.[1]
