The Jessie B. Smith House is a historic house at 200 Charlotte Street in Fordyce, Arkansas. This single-story wood frame house was built c. 1890, and is an excellent early instance of a center-hall house, a style which was brought about by growing urbanization. The house is three bays wide and one deep, with a brick chimney at the north end. The porch which extends across the front has jigsaw-cut brackets.[2]

The house was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.[1]
