The Rife Farmstead is a historic farm property in rural Benton County, Arkansas. Located on the west side of County Road 47 about 1.25 miles (2.01 km) north of its junction with Arkansas Highway 264, it consists of a single-story Bungalow-style stone house with a front-gable roof, and a side gable projecting portico. The house was built in 1928 by Luther Rife, and is unusual in this rural setting, where most houses are vernacular in form. The property original had two c. 1910 barns when the property was surveyed in 1988;[2] these are apparently no longer standing.
