This Queen Post Swing Beam barn is a true gem of the Mohawk Valley. The timbers are finely hewn, ruggedly-jointed and of large cross-section, yielding a large and spacious open first floor. The built-in ladder adds a great touch of utility, and the original craftsmen included a second floor loft, adding generously to the square footage described below.
