J. McIntyre Farm is a historic farm located near Newark, New Castle County, Delaware. The property includes five contributing buildings. They are a stuccoed brick house with frame Gothic Revival style additions, a stone bank barn (c. 1830), and three late 19th century outbuildings: a braced frame corn crib, a braced frame machine shed, and a two-story granary covered with corrugated metal siding. The house is a two-story, three bay, brick building with an added central cross-gable, and a frame wing extending from its west endwall. The barn walls are constructed of large, dark fieldstones with large, rectangular quoins, and in places is covered with a pebbled stucco.[2]

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.[1]
