The Ida New and William Madison Turner Farm is a historic farmhouse in Lebanon, Tennessee. It was built in 1913-1914 for Ian New and William Madison Turner on land they purchased from Eula and Jep Lain.[2] The fence was completed circa 1920.[2] There are several other buildings on the farm, including a chicken coop built in 1960, a smokehouse and a washhouse.[2] The farm was taken over by their son Van New Turner in 1941, although his mother continued to live on the property until her death in 1950.[2] Turner lived here with his wife, Nancy Moore.[2] By the 1990s, it belonged to Anne Turner Overton, one of their descendants.[2]

The main farmhouse was designed in the American Foursquare architectural style.[2] It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since November 7, 1995.[1]
