The house shows closer ties to Orange County architecture than to typical Ulster stone houses. The intact complex illustrates changing agricultural practices and the regional rural economy from about 1775 to 1930.","narrative":"Along Allhusen Road, the former Milton Turnpike near Modena in Ulster County, New York, this 142-acre farm holds fifteen historic resources in two groups: a house complex and a barn complex. The centerpiece is a small, two-story Federal style farmhouse of about 1825, built partly of wood frame and partly of fieldstone and set into a hillside. Its interior keeps fine woodwork, including Adamesque mantels built for stoves and a formal parlor on the second floor. The barn group includes a Dutch barn with a massive hand-hewn H-frame, expanded in several stages, alongside a granary, ice house and other sheds. A fieldstone barn, a stone smokehouse, a house foundation and a stone-lined well add to the ensemble. The property was listed because these buildings together show regional building traditions and changing farming practices from roughly 1775 to 1930. The land remains in agricultural use, and the Dutch barn now serves a winery while keeping its original framing visible.","period_of_significance":"circa 1775-1930","architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Early Republic/Federal; Colonial/Dutch Colonial","criteria":[],"status_note":"Still used for agricultural purposes; the Dutch barn has been adapted for wine making and tasting, and a smokehouse is deteriorating and roofless.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:50:44.721099-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/lz/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_NY/88003075.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/88003075/c928999192-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/88003075/c928999192-1600.webp","licence":"CC BY-SA 3.0","author":"Daniel Case","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Thaddeus_Hait_Farm_main_house.jpg\" rel=\"noopener\">Daniel Case</a>, <a href=\"http://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:Thaddeus_Hait_Farm_main_house.jpg"},"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/75322626","wikipedia":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thaddeus_Hait_Farm","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q7708983"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/new-york/ulster-county/hait-thaddeus-farm-88003075/"}
