Rev. Asahel Norton Homestead is a historic home and farm complex located at Kirkland in Oneida County, New York.

The owner, Rev. Asahel Norton (Sept. 20, 1765-May 10, 1853) was a graduate of Yale College. He became known in later life for his interest in pomology, and for his apple trees. He was one of the founders of Hamilton College.[2]

The home was built about 1797 and is a two-story wood-frame structure with a five bay, center hall configuration in a vernacular Federal style. Also on the property are the original well, chicken coop and animal barn, and fruit orchard.[3]

The homestead was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1999.[1]
