1961 Blytheville Ranch on Half an Acre, New HVAC and Roof — $65,000

The two biggest unknowns on any older house are the roof and the HVAC. On this one, both are done. The roof is two years old and the HVAC was replaced in 2025, so you are walking in without those conversations hanging over you.

The house itself is a 1961 ranch on half an acre along Highway 312 in Blytheville. Three bedrooms, one bath, 1,287 square feet. The layout includes a living room, a kitchen with a stove and refrigerator already in place, and a laundry room. Ceiling fans throughout. The hardwood floors are the kind of thing you notice right away and are glad about.

Outside there is a covered carport, a wood privacy fence, and a storage shed. Half an acre gives you real room to move around in, and the shed handles whatever you need to keep out of the house.

The listing says sold as-is, which is honest and worth taking at face value. Go in with eyes open and a thorough inspection. But at $65,000, you are paying roughly $50 a square foot with the roof and HVAC already sorted. That is a narrow window of exposure on the big-ticket items most buyers worry about first.

The agent description is light on interior detail, so what is visible from the listing is what you have to work with. Hardwood floors, functional layout, a shed, a fence, and a carport. Nothing elaborate. A straightforward house on a decent piece of ground with its major systems updated.
