Samuel T. and Mary B. Parnell House

The Samuel T. and Mary B. Parnell House is a two-story residence near Hollister built entirely from local Ozark stone with massive stone piers supporting its structure. The building features a rectangular layout with a gable roof and displays wooden sash windows with concrete sills throughout its exterior.

This residence was built in 1912 as an example of American Craftsman architecture from the early 1900s. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2008 in recognition of its architectural importance.

The residence exemplifies early 20th-century residential design with its rectangular shape, gable roof, and distinctive wooden sash windows with concrete sills.

The property sits along Angels Trail at the northern edge of Hollister and overlooks Lake Taneycomo. Its setting on about 6 acres provides ample space to explore and enjoy a quiet rural location.

The building displays specialized masonry work with vertically placed stones forming simple arches above each door and window. This hands-on construction method is characteristic of stone buildings from this era in the region.
