Louis Menand House, Historic house in Menands, New York.

The Louis Menand House stands as a two-story Queen Anne style farmhouse with a cross-gable roof, fishscale shingles on gable ends, and a central chimney.

Built in two phases, with the rear section dating from 1840 and the front section completed in 1881, the house received National Register of Historic Places status in 1985.

The residence reflects the legacy of Louis Menand, a French immigrant who established numerous nurseries and developed new plant hybrids in nineteenth-century New York.

Located at 40 Cemetery Avenue near Albany Rural Cemetery, the property includes three sheds, a garage, and the foundation of a former greenhouse.

The house sits on 3.92 acres of land that displays specimen trees and plantings from the original Menand family nursery, which influenced the development of the surrounding suburb.
