Corey Farm is located in a rural location of central Dublin, east of Mount Monadnock, down a winding lane off the end of Parsons Road. It is a rambling 2+1⁄2-story wood-frame structure, with a clipped gable roof and clapboarded exterior. The roof is pierced on its front and rear faces by a variety of gable- and hip-roof dormers. Windows are of differing dimensions and somewhat random placement, and a single-story gabled ell extends to the right. The left rear corner has two levels of porches. [2]
The oldest portion of this rambling 2+1⁄2-story wood-frame house was built c. 1816 by Moses Corey, a farmer, on land purchased from his father-in-law. Corey was prominent in local affairs, serving on the board of selectmen and the school committee. He sold the farm in 1850. Mrs. William Parsons purchased the property in 1889, and began its transformation into a gentleman's farm, part of a larger complex of properties owned by that family. This house was occupied by her daughter, artist Georgianna Parsons (who later built the nearby Parsons Studio and Casino). A 20th-century owner of the property was Ernest J. Simmons, a professor of Slavic Languages at Columbia University. [2]
