The Blake House is a historic house at 211 Southeast A Street in Bentonville, Arkansas. It is a two-story wood frame duplex, with entirely vernacular styling, except for a Craftsman-style porch (with tapered square columns set on stone piers) added in the 20th century. The house, estimated to have been built in the 1880s, is a remarkably well-preserved example of a once-numerous building type in the city.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988.[1]
