The Jessie Abernathy House is a historic house in rural southeastern Stone County, Arkansas. It is located south of Partee Drive, just east of Arkansas Highway 14 in the hamlet of Marcella. A 1-1/2 story wood frame structure, five bays wide, with a side gable roof and rear ell (architecture), the front entry is sheltered by a hip-roof porch supported by turned columns. Built in 1884, it is a fine local example of vernacular late Victorian architecture in a rural setting.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.[1]
