2,157 Square Feet on Half an Acre in Stuttgart — $119,900

The price works out to about $55 a square foot, which is the first thing worth knowing. The second is that you're getting four city lots with it, so the yard is more like a small compound than a typical in-town setup.

Inside, the square footage mostly holds up. The living area is big enough to feel like one, the dining room is a separate room rather than a corner of something else, and the kitchen has an eating area built into it. Two bedrooms and two full baths, though the listing also mentions a half bath, so the count in the data may be slightly off. The primary suite is oversized and has its own bath and what sounds like serious closet space. Tile throughout, which means nothing's going to need refinishing.

The roof and windows have already been replaced, which matters at this price point because those are the things that tend to come up on inspection and eat into whatever margin you thought you had. The listing doesn't say when either was done, so that's worth asking directly before you go in.

Out back there's a detached storage building that sounds substantial. The listing describes it as large with room for tools, equipment, or hobby use, but doesn't give dimensions. It's on a lot with half an acre of room around it, so even without the building there's space to actually do something with the yard.

Stuttgart is in Arkansas County, about an hour southeast of Little Rock. It's a small agricultural city, rice and duck hunting country mostly, and the real estate market reflects that. A house at this size for this price is a function of the local market rather than something being wrong with the house. The agent description is thin on specifics beyond what's listed above, so the interior condition and the age of the home aren't entirely clear from what was provided.
