Janney-Phillips House
This is another house constructed in two phases. Joseph Janney built a small log house here shortly after 1781; this is the beaded weatherboard-clad west portion of the house. Thomas Phillips (c.1783-1842) added a one-story brick section to the house before 1803. By 1816, the brick side had been raised to two stories. The prominent Bond family made this their home by 1827, living here at least through the Civil War.

Moore-Bond House
Asa Moore built this house sometime between 1805 and 1816 and then rented it to tenants. In later years, this was another home of the Bond family. The brick dwelling on a stone foundation is typical of Waterford Federal period dwellings, with Flemish bond on the front, closers at the corners, common bond on the sides and rear, and jack arches over the windows. A skilled brickmason obviously constructed the house. |

The Good House
The builder of this 1995 home and its barn used local architectural elements to harmonize them with their older neighbors. The stone foundation, white weatherboard siding, and metal roof all appear in many 19th-century structures in the village. The Good House exemplifies "history-friendly construction" in a National Historic District. |

The Tiscione House
This house was completed in 1996. The handmade bricks were laid in flemish bond style; the decorative cornice echoes those of earlier Waterford houses. The land on which this and the Good House are built used to belong to the Ernest James family who resided in the Janney-Phillips house for much of the 20th century. The Waterford Foundation purchased the land in the late 1980s then resold these two lots. |
