Edward Dickinson House

The Edward Dickinson House is a historic house at 672 East Boswell Street in Batesville, Arkansas. It is a 1+12-story wood-frame structure, with a steeply pitched gable roof and Gothic Revival styling. A front-facing gable is centered on the main facade, with a Gothic-arched window at its center. The single-story porch extending across the front is supported by chamfered posts and has a jigsawn balustrade. Built about 1875, it is one of the city's few surviving 19th-century Gothic houses, a style that is somewhat rare in the state.

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.
