Freeman House is a historic home located at Guilderland in Albany County, New York. The original house (the center and eastern section) was built about 1734; a western addition was built about 1750; and a rear ell was added about 1800. It is a two-story Dutch Colonial house with a gable roof and built of large, smooth finished beams. It is one of the finest and oldest colonial period buildings in Guilderland,^[2] and may be the oldest frame house in Guilderland.^[3]

Following the American Revolution, the home belonged to Revolutionary War veteran Barent Mynderse.^[3]

When photographer Nelson E. Baldwin photographed the house in 1937 as part of the Historic American Buildings Survey, it was covered in a synthetic brick siding, which has since been removed.^[3] A historic marker stands in front of the house.^[3]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.^[1]
