Bloom House

Bloom House is a residential building in Searcy made from stone with a hip roof topped in green tiles and two gable sections framing the front entrance. The one-and-a-half story structure sits at the corner of Maple and Academy Streets with a single brick chimney at the back.

The building was constructed around 1930 during the Great Depression and was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1991. It was recognized as part of a regional survey that documented multiple historic properties across White County.

The house shows local building practices through its use of fieldstone gathered from the region and reflects how people in Arkansas built homes during that era. This style of construction represents the everyday craft traditions that shaped residential architecture across White County.

The building is located in downtown Searcy at an accessible street corner where it can easily be viewed from the road. The surrounding area makes it convenient to walk by and observe the exterior at your own pace.

The roof was finished with green tiles, an unusual color choice for residential buildings of that era in the region. This distinctive detail sets it apart visually from other examples of Craftsman architecture found in White County.
