The Hoofman Farmstead Barn is a historic barn in rural White County, Arkansas. It is located north of Searcy, on the west side of Salem Church Road. It is a stone structure, 1+12 stories in height, with a wood-frame gabled roof. It is basically rectangular, with a stone shed-roof extension on one side, giving it a saltbox profile. Built about 1920, it is the largest and possibly oldest historic stone structure in the county. It was built to serve as a large root cellar.[2]

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