8331 Howard Hill Rd Fort Smith, AR 72916

From the circle drive to the long view across the back acreage, this custom built home was designed to make full use of its 2.07-acre setting. Mature oaks frame the brick-and-stone French country exterior, set well off Howard Hill Road behind stone entry columns and established landscaping. Inside Fort Smith city limits with city services and water, yet zoned for Greenwood schools, the property offers a combination that is difficult to duplicate. Its 3,300+ square feet keeps most living on one level, with three bedrooms, a dedicated office and an open kitchen, dining and living area at the center of the home. Completely remodeled in 2018, the kitchen is built for someone who genuinely cooks, with Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances, custom cabinetry, quartzite surfaces, stone-tile backsplash, an oversized workstation sink, substantial eat/work island and built-in coffee and beverage bar. The adjoining living room features an updated direct-vent fireplace, and the nearby half bath was refreshed during the same renovation. The primary suite includes a private bath, walk-in closet and a second master closet that doubles as a certified storm shelter/panic room. Two additional bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill bath, while the dedicated office has its own porch access and views across the acreage. The 2018 renovation also extended to the laundry room, adding built-in drying racks and Miele washer and dryer that convey. Upstairs, over 600 square feet with a kitchenette and full bath gives guests, teenagers, movies or game nights a space of their own. Out back, a deep covered porch finished with a stained tongue-and-groove ceiling overlooks the grounds and Howard Hill beyond, with a rock fireplace, built-in Wolf grill and vent hood, TV and overhead radiant heater extending its use through the seasons. An oversized two-car garage plus a separate third garage connected by a portico provides uncommon parking and storage flexibility. Fresh interior paint, a soft-washed exterior, professional interior cleaning and freshly shampooed carpets leave the home move-in ready. Plantation shutters, a conveying Rainbow play set, a 2023 roof and recently serviced and pumped septic complete an acreage property with the space and privacy of a country setting while retaining the conveniences of in-town living.
