The C.R. Breckinridge House is a historic house at 504 North 16th Street in Fort Smith, Arkansas. It is a large two-story structure, with a hip roof, stuccoed walls, and a fieldstone foundation. A porch extends across the front facade, supported by seven box columns, with an open veranda above. The main entrance is flanked by sidelight windows and topped by a half-oval transom window.
