The Hester-Lenz House is a historic house at 905 AR 5 N in Benton, Arkansas.

An addition was made in the 1860s or 1870s to the rear of the western pen which features a Greek Revival mantle.
The defining architecture of the Little Georgia community is that of vernacular 19th century Georgia, from where most of the settlers moved. Seven types of architecture found in Georgia during the period when the pioneer families moved to Mississippi seem to have influenced the community: single and double pen, hall-parlor, dogtrot, saddlebag, central hall house, and double pile (also referred to as "Georgian cottage" architecture). The Lacy house, built in 1902 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2007, is built in the Georgian cottage style. Most Georgian cottage style buildings were built between the years of 1850 and 1890, so the use of this architectural style in 1902 reflects the conservative attitude that many in the settlement felt toward new architectural practices.
