The Birdie Boussuet Farm, near Richfield, Idaho, was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.[1]

It includes a low one-story house built of lava rock, about 30 by 38 feet (9.1 m × 11.6 m) in plan. It also includes a barn. The buildings "are significant as examples of rural vernacular architecture demonstrating the hard work and resourcefulness of a Lincoln county farmer-mason," Birdie Bousset. It was owned by him from about 1921 to 1927.[2]

It is located about 1.75 feet (0.53 m) west of Richfield.[2]
