History

It was built in 1869 by Moses Barlow on the site of a former tavern, and is a Шаблон:Frac-story, Second Empire style brick dwelling with a slate mansard roof. The house has several asymmetrically placed side and rear wings. It features a two-story six-hole (three up, three down) privy thought to be the only house with such a structure. Access to the unique feature can be obtained from both levels of the house.[1]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2001.[2]

The house was purchased by an anonymous donor in 1999 and presented as a gift to the Phelps Community Historical Society. The house has been renovated and is now open to the public for tours.
