Its interior retains a high degree of integrity from the 1915 renovation, including mantels, stairs, architraves and moldings. It is also an architectural landmark in the Coleman Station hamlet and is tied to one of the hamlet's most significant families.","narrative":"Built about 1850 on Reagan Road in the Coleman Station hamlet near Millerton, this two-story wood-frame farmhouse was the home of Oliver Barrett, a farmer, milk supplier, justice of the peace and the area's first postmaster. Its hand-hewn timber frame, weatherboard siding, balanced five-bay front and center-passage plan reflect classically inspired design of the mid-1800s. A major renovation around 1915 added a wrap-around porch and a wide oak stair hall, pocket doors, beveled glass, mantels and patterned oak floors that survive largely intact. The property once covered more than 150 acres and now includes about 12 acres, with the sites of a barn, silo and the store and post office that served the hamlet until 1954. The house is valued as an architectural landmark of the hamlet, as a visual link to its farming past, and for its connection to the Barrett family, who were prominent in the community.","period_of_significance":"ca. 1850-ca. 1915","architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Early Republic/Federal and Late Victorian/Queen Anne","criteria":["C"],"status_note":"Used as a single dwelling; it was once divided into three rental households, and a ca. 1990 fireplace and third chimney were added.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:51:50.981215-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/lz/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_NY/00001416.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/00001416/55a7b0e1ea-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/00001416/55a7b0e1ea-1600.webp","licence":"CC BY-SA 3.0","author":"Daniel Case","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Oliver_Barrett_House,_Millerton,_NY.jpg\" rel=\"noopener\">Daniel Case</a>, <a href=\"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0\" rel=\"license noopener\">CC BY-SA 3.0</a>, via Wikimedia Commons","source_page":"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Oliver_Barrett_House,_Millerton,_NY.jpg"},"district":{"nrhp_refnum":"93000945","name":"Coleman Station Historic District","url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/districts/new-york/coleman-station-historic-district-93000945/"},"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/75317297","wikipedia":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oliver_Barrett_House","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q7087400"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/new-york/dutchess-county/barrett-oliver-house-00001416/"}
