It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1986 by John and Ethel Giblin. ^[1]

History and architectural features

The complex includes the great double barn and farmhouse, both dated principally to the early twentieth century, a carriage house and stable, dated to the 1880s, a creamery, and various sheds. The great double barn is a T-shaped, bank barn wood building, which features a pair of great sliding doors on the uphill side. It is the largest remaining barn in Delaware County. The farmhouse is a 2+1⁄2-story, modified center hall, Georgian-style house, which features a broad shed roof dormer. ^[2]
