Built in 1933, the beautiful Tudor Revival House incorporates the simplicity and high style of the era. The house sits as the centerpiece of 11 acres of grounds and gardens, yet it blends into the landscape as if each were a part of the other. The interior design of the house is somewhat reminiscent of a Frank Lloyd Wright house, in that it is functional, yet beautiful. The house holds memories of a former time when Karl and Matilda Pfeiffer entertained friends and family, including Karl's sister Pauline Pfeiffer and her husband Ernest Hemingway. The grounds have evolved from the grasslands of a former dairy to a preserve of native Arkansas plants. The grounds are also a natural habitat for many small animals. the wooded area is a sanctuary for deer and birds, and the pond hosts aquatic creatures as well as provides water for the other inhabitants.

- Logo-  Tulip Poplar Leaf and seed pod the leaf of the Tulip Poplar was chosen as the logo for the Matilda and Karl Pfeiffer Museum and Study Center because of the unique connection of the tree to Croley's Ridge.
