Andrew Short House, 19th-century farmhouse in Henrietta, United States.
The Andrew Short House is a 19th-century farmhouse in Henrietta with a two-story wooden frame and vertically laid planks. Single-story additions extend from the rear of the building to provide extra space.
The building was constructed in 1855 and was originally known as the Florendin Feasel House before being registered on the National Register of Historic Places. The registration recognized its importance as an example of mid-1800s rural architecture.
The house shows how people lived in rural Monroe County during the 1800s and the building methods common to the area at that time. The wooden frame construction reflects the craftsmanship that local builders used.
The house stands in Henrietta, Monroe County, New York, and is a private residence, so it is seen from the road rather than entered. The sources give no street address or opening arrangements; the coordinates 43.05944, -77.63167 place it within the hamlet. Approach on foot or by car and view the front gable and vertical plank walls from the public way.
The property was first listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2014 under the name Florendin Feasel House, and the entry now carries the name Andrew Short House. The two single-story rear additions are part of the original footprint described in that listing, not later alterations.
