The Sherman and Merlene Bates House is a historic house at the southeast corner of Dawson and Echo Streets in Hardy, Arkansas. It is a single story wood-frame house finished in sandstone veneer, with a gable roof. The main facade has a projecting front gable section, which has a picture window on the left and the main entrance on the right. A period garage, finished with the same stone, stands behind the house.
The house was built in 1947 for Sherman Bates, owner of a local bulk fuel oil facility, and is a high-quality local example of a post-World War II stone house.[2]
The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2002.[1] An earlier house built for Bates in Hardy is also listed, as the Sherman Bates House.[2]
