The Stoner–Keller House and Mill, also known as the Abraham Stoner House, John H. Keller House, and Stoner Mill, is a historic home and grist mill located near Strasburg, Shenandoah County, Virginia. The main house was built in 1844, and is a two-story, five-bay, gable-roofed, L-shaped, vernacular Greek Revival style brick "I-house." It has a frame, one-story, three-bay, hip-roofed front porch with late-Victorian scroll-sawn wood decoration. The Stoner–Keller Mill was built about 1772 and enlarged about 1855. It is a gambrel-roofed, four-story, limestone building with a Fitz steel wheel added about 1895. Also on the property are the contributing tailrace trace (1772), frame tenant house and bank barn (c. 1880), and a dam ruin (c. 1920).[3]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2013.[2]
