The W.S. Jeffery Farmstead is a historic estate with a farm house, a barn and several outbuildings in Benedict, Nebraska. The farm was established in 1878, and the barn was built in 1879–1880, followed by a farm house designed in the Queen Anne architectural style, built in 1900–1902.

One of their sons, Orman Schuyler Jeffery, lived on the farm until his death in 1951. It remained in the Jeffery family in the 1980s. The property has been listed on the
