St. Stephen's Methodist Church is a historic Methodist church located in the Marble Hill neighborhood of Bronx, New York City. The church was designed by architect Alexander McMillan Welch and built in 1897. It is a two-story, Shingle style church on a raised basement. It has a cross-gable roof topped by a small cupola, a rose window on the front facade, and features a pronounced bell tower with an open belfry and balconies. The interior is based on the Akron Plan. The church has an attached Sunday School wing with a hipped roof. Also on the property is the contributing two-story, Queen Anne style frame parsonage.[2]: 3, 6
