The Garrott House, which is the oldest surviving structure in Batesville (Independence County), was constructed in 1842. The one-and-a-half story, braced-frame, Georgian structure consists of six rooms and a central hallway. The house was modernized in the 1880s, giving it its present appearance. The house was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1971.
