The Hemingway House is a historic house at 1720 Arch Street in Little Rock, Arkansas. It is a 2-1/2 story wood frame structure, with complex massing and exterior typical of the Queen Anne period. A projecting bay on the left has a distinctive array of arched windows on the first floor, and a projecting trio of sash windows set in a bracket-supported surround, with a Palladian window in the gable above. The porch has delicate turned posts, in a distinctive tapered shape with flared bases and knobs at the top. The house was designed about 1898 by the noted Arkansas architect Charles L. Thompson.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.[1]
