The Esther Locke House is a historic house at the southeast corner of Spring and 3rd Streets in Hardy, Arkansas. It is a large Plain Traditional rubble stone structure, with a gable roof and rubble stone foundation. The dominant feature of its main facade is a recessed two-story porch. Built in 1936–37, it is locally distinctive as a Depression-era structure built as a residence and rooming house. The downstairs housed Esther and Norma Sue Locke, who owned the property, and there were seven rooms upstairs that were rented to long-term tenants.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1998.[1]
