The Owen Martin House is a historic house on Arkansas Highway 14 in Marcella, Arkansas. Situated on a relatively open field west of the highway (screened by another property in front of it), it is a single-story wood-frame structure, in a double-pen dogtrot plan, with a side-gable roof and weatherboard siding. A shed-roof porch extends across the east-facing front, supported by square posts, and a cross-gabled ell extends west from the rear of the southern pen. The house was built in about 1920, illustrating the persistence of the traditional form well into the 20th century.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.[1]
