About this property

You will enjoy being in the hub of downtown activity while staying in the calm environment of this beautiful contemporary urban loft, located downtown in a historic 1911 bank building on the Talimena Scenic Drive.
The apartment features original architectural details including exposed brick and hardwood floors, plus all the modern amenities. You will enjoy two full baths, a fully outfitted kitchen, granite counters, washer and dryer, huge closets, complimentary wi-fi, and two flat screen televisions. The en suite bedroom features a king size bed with memory foam mattress, and a bathroom with walk in shower and large claw foot tub. There is also a daybed with trundle in its own niche at the front of the apartment, which sleeps two additional people. You will be walking distance to shopping, dining, galleries, entertainment, museums, and local parks, yet still be just minutes drive from the beautiful Ouachita National Forest, ATV trails, and lakes where you can enjoy fishing, boating, golfing, hiking, and 4-wheeling.
The loft is located directly above the Old Bank Antiques, with its own private entrance. The building is on the downtown parade route, and at different times of the year is also front and center for classic auto shows and festivals. The stairway to the apartment was built for ease in climbing, and the second story setting and large windows provide a panoramic view of the town and the Ouachita Mountains.

[Please note that he Kansas City Southern Railway has a track that runs through Mena, and the train travels through town several times per day, and sometimes also at night. Please be aware, in case you are a light sleeper and feel that this might be an issue.]

Get away weekend

My wife and I were interested in a get-away weekend and decided to give Mena a try. We had been to the area before, several years ago. Jerri's place was just as advertised. It was clean and comfortable and we enjoyed our stay, very much. When we're back in the area, again, we would love to stay there, again. Thanks for a great get-away.

A LOFTY VIEW

The Loft is very spacious. The Master Bath is beautifully appointed. The Loft has plenty of sitting areas and eating spaces. We loved the location which is within walking distance of our new favorites: Quachita Coffee Roasters...nice breakfast or lunch place and American Artisans Eatery & Gallery. This is a very secure location as well. A locked entry from street level leads to stairs (32) leading to locked door of Loft. The location provides very good access to Queen Wilhelmina State Park with all levels of hiking trails. Full Disclosure: There is a train that makes frequent trips through Mena. Regardless of where you stay in this area, you will hear that train.

About the host

Hosted by Jerri Mccoy

After purchasing the building, we completely renovated the second floor. Care was taken to preserve some of the original features while insuring that all the modern conveniences were included in the renovation. We hope you will love the finished product!

Why they chose this property

The charm of the town, combined with the natural beauty of the area, made Mena an easy choice for our retirement home. This historic building is centrally located, and was the perfect place to open our retirement business, The Old Bank Antiques, which occupies the first floor.
