The Cherry-Luter Estate is a historic country estate, also known as The Castle, at 521 West Scenic Drive in North Little Rock, Arkansas. The main house is a two-story French Renaissance limestone structure with a gabled roof and round tower at its southwest corner. A carriage house of similar construction stands nearby, and there is a pavilion with a half-timbered roof with exposed beams. A stone wall lines the road at the edge of the property, which is just under 5 acres (2.0 ha) in size. The estate was largely developed by 1923 by John J. Cherry, and is one of the city's architectural landmarks.[2]

The property was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1992.[1]

The estate was purchased by Rev. Steven and Theresa Tiner in February, 2016.
