Built in 1923–24 for Sidney A. Umsted, an oil magnate who amassed his fortune following the 1922 discovery of petroleum in nearby Smackover, this two-story brick residence at 404 Washington Street in Camden, Arkansas showcases Mediterranean Revival design. The house is faced in beige brick and crowned with a distinctive green tile roof, making it one of the finest local examples of the style. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1995, it now operates as a bed and breakfast inn.
