Built for H.W. Warner in 1896-1906. Federal in style. Called Northway House when William McNair owned the place. It was subsequently inherited by his daughter Elivra McNair Fairchild and her husband William McNair {capitalist} who served as vice president of Unadilla Valley Railway Co.

In the 1980s during the filming of the movie "The Money Pit" with Tom Hanks and Shelley Long, the house was owned by Eric Ridder Sr.{publisher}. Ridder was a gold medal winner in 1952 as a member of the American yachting team. In 1964 he co-captained the Constellation in successful defense of the America's Cup. It was later purchased in 1997 by Steven Thurman who subdivided the land for a housing development. After lingering on the market for several years, the estate finally sold in 2019.
