Benner House, Stone colonial house in Rhinebeck, United States.

The Benner House at 1 Mill Street features a rectangular structure with a gabled roof, flared stone lintels, and an asymmetrically placed Dutch door.

Johannes Benner, who emigrated from Upper Bavaria, constructed this one-room stone dwelling in 1739, making it the oldest remaining house in Rhinebeck Village.

The residence exemplifies German vernacular architecture in the Hudson Valley through its traditional one-room floor plan and construction methods from the colonial period.

Located near U.S. Route 9, the property includes a wooded lot that provides clear views of the road and valley from its diagonal orientation.

The Benner House remains the single surviving example of a one-room-plan stone house in Rhinebeck, reflecting early German building traditions.
