Description

Range Managing Principle Alli Thurmond Quinlan designed this pioneering Missing Middle housing project for developer Mark Haney that bridges the gap between single-family homes and apartment buildings. The development features two attached 912-square-foot units in a modified "Boomerang" configuration facing NW B Street, plus a rear accessory dwelling unit conceived around a salvaged door from University of Arkansas campus renovations.

The project exemplifies Range's approach to community-centered design by preserving mature existing trees—Pecan, Hackberry, and Tulip Poplar—while maximizing density through creative site planning and sophisticated architectural detailing. Each unit features "petite luxury" design elements including 12-inch-thick exterior walls with superior insulation, deep window sills, high-quality traditional finishes, and brick veneer exterior that harmonizes with Bentonville's historic neighborhood character.

Range navigated complex zoning variances, creative property line adjustments, and innovative setback solutions to achieve a walkable development that maintains connection to downtown Bentonville. The collaborative design process with the City of Bentonville demonstrates Range's expertise in making Missing Middle housing both financially feasible and architecturally exceptional.

This 3,422-square-foot lot accommodates three complete housing units while elevating affordable housing to "petite luxury" standards through thoughtful material selection and design details that honor local architectural traditions.
