Baker House Bed & Breakfast
Baker House Bed & Breakfast
The Baker House is located in downtown North Little Rock's historic Argenta district. This gem of Argenta is a setting for ornate, curly pine woodwork, and a central circular staircase and elaborate oak mantles. The exterior features include a 3 story tower, fountains, gardens, and even a hitching post for our horse riding guests. The house is decorated with Victorian antiques and period peices. Each bedroom suite has its own private bath with some featuring fireplaces and claw foot soaking tubs. Every morning breakfast is served in the formal dining room on period china, and in the evening guests are offered a variety of snacks and beverages from the butlers pantry.
The Baker House is an exceptional Queene Anne Victorian house built in 1898-1899. It went through several owners before being restored in 1977 and was then placed on the National Register of Historic Structures in 1978. The house was then given new life as North Little Rock's first bed and breakfast offering a pleasing mixture of Southern Hospitality and Victorian elegance. The Baker House Bed & Breakfast is conveniently located in the center of the Argenta Historic District within two blocks of numerous restaurants and bars and across the street from one of the finest Italian restaurants in Central Arkansas, Ristorante Capeo. Dinner at Ristorante Capeo is a must for those who enjoy fine dining in a casual relaxed setting. Cregeen's Irish Pub is an authentic Irish pub built in Ireland and serving Irish fare, two blocks away. Starving Artists Cafe is a wonderful chef driven restaurant featuring local artists works for sale. Local artists regularly work in the restaurant. Starving Artist is located less than one block from the Baker House. The Baker House is the only bed and breakfast located on the Central Arkansas River Rail Trolley Line that services the Little Rock River Market district, the Clinton Presidential Library, Statehouse Convention Center, and Alltell Arena.
