Jephtha Earl Cobblestone Farmhouse is a historic home located at Benton in Yates County, New York. The farmhouse was built about 1850–1860 and is an example of Italianate style, cobblestone domestic architecture. The main block is a two-story, L-shaped mass with a cross-gable roof and pedimented front gable, connecting a number of wings. It is built of tiny, reddish, oval-shaped cobbles. The farmhouse is among the nine surviving cobblestone buildings in Yates County.[2]
