The Bement-Billings House is a historic house located on NY 38 north of Newark Valley in Tioga County, New York.
It is a -story, clapboard farmhouse on a random ashlar stone foundation, exhibiting characteristic features of the Federal and Greek Revival styles. The house began as a one-room cabin, built about 1796, and evolved during the 19th century into the extensive 15-room, 30feetby46feetft (byft) structure that exists today. The house underwent extensive renovation in 1977. Also on the property is a contributing privy.[1]
The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on February 19, 1990.
The house is now the centerpiece of the Bement-Billings Farmstead Museum and is owned and operated by the Newark Valley Historical Society. The museum includes the mid-19th century period house, a reconstructed blacksmith shop, a threshing barn, wood shop, carriage shed, and welcome center. Open seasonally on weekends, tours and craft demonstrations are provided by costumed docents.
