Minaret Manor is a historic mansion house at 844 West Semmes Avenue in Osceola, Arkansas. Set on a landscape 5-acre (2.0 ha) parcel (reduced by subdivision from the original 15), it is a large 2+12-story brick Tudor Revival building. The lower portions of the house are finished in brick laid in stretcher bond, while gabled upper areas exhibit half-timbering with brick laid in a diagonal basket weave pattern. At the right front side of the main facade is a three-story turret with conical roof. The house was built in 1948 for Andrew J. Florida, the principal owner of a real estate empire that extend across eastern Arkansas and western Tennessee.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2017.[1]
