Brace Farm, also known as Pleasant Hill Stock Farm, is a historic home and farm located at Meetinghouse Green in Herkimer County, New York. The Brace farmhouse was built in 1861, and consists of a two-story, three-bay, main block and 1 1/2-story rear ell with Italianate style design elements. The frame dwelling has a low-pitched hipped roof topped by a cupola, overhanging bracketed eaves, and a one-story front porch with decorative scrollwork. Also on the property are a contributing carriage house (c. 1870) and massive dairy barn complex (c. 1810 with multiple additions).[2]: 5–6
