The Dr. John Octavius Hatcher House is a historic house at 210 3rd Street in Imboden, Arkansas. It is a 2+1⁄2-story wood-frame structure, with an architectural development spanning from c. 1902 to the 1920s. When built c. 1902, the house featured transitional Queen Anne/Colonial Revival styling, including a porch with turned posts and a spindled balustrade. A tornado damaged the house in the early 1920s, destroying a dormer, and probably damaging the porch, whose columns were replaced by Tuscan columns, and then at a later date by square posts. At some point the dormers on the eastern elevation were extended, giving the house a more Plain-Traditional appearance than its original Queen Anne look. The house was built as a wedding present from Dr. J. W. Randolph to his daughter Nellie, who was marrying Dr. John Octavius Hatcher. Hatcher served as the small community's doctor between 1904 and 1913.[2]
