Stonehouse Farm

Stonehouse Farm is a historic residential property featuring Federal-style architecture built from stone in the Oneonta area. The main structure has a central cross-gable section with side wings, and a formal entrance framed by classical Doric columns.

The house was built in 1820 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980 for its architectural importance. It represents a period of rural prosperity in early 19th-century New York.

The house reflects how wealthy farming families in the early 1800s combined classical design ideas with the practical needs of rural life on their estates.

The 11-acre property sits along New York Route 7 east of Oneonta and is easily visible from the road. This is a private residence, so visitors should check ahead before visiting the grounds.

The property combines solid stone construction with refined classical details, which was uncommon for rural New York homes of that period. This blend reveals that the owner had enough wealth to pursue sophisticated taste while managing agricultural operations.
