The Jack Wood House is a historic house on Judson Avenue in Judsonia, Arkansas. It is an L-shaped wooden structure, clad in weatherboard siding, and presently exhibiting Craftsman styling, the result of a major restyling in c. 1924. The oldest portion of the house was built about 1890, and is a rare local example of box frame construction, with vertical planking as the main means of support, joined to the sills and rafters by square-cut nails. A more conventionally framed ell and the front porch were added about 1907. [2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989. [1]
