The Stone/Hassett/Baker House was built between 1840 and 1850 by John G. Stone on land he leased from the canal company. In 1860, Stone conveyed the lease to Thomas J. Hassett, whose family lived on the property until 1921 (Mastrangelo 1987:7). The building is a 2 ½-story frame house, with an ell. The ell had an addition, which had a dormer window. There are two chimneys; one in the ell and one in the main block. It has a metal roof, asbestos siding, and a covered porch on the south elevation and a 2-story covered porch on the west elevation. Further research is needed to determine when the ell and the porches were added. National Park Service Cultural Landscapes Inventory, 2008
