Howard Mansion and Carriage House is a historic mansion and carriage house located at Hyde Park in Dutchess County, New York. It was designed by noted architect Charles Follen McKim (1847-1909) and built in 1896. It is a two-story, six-bay, eclectic dwelling built of uncoursed fieldstone. It is rectangular in plan and has a wood shingled roof with overhanging twin gables. The front entrance is a Dutch door and features a portico supported by two square, bracketed columns. The carriage house is a two-story, wood frame, stucco covered, Tudor style building built in 1901. It features a two-story, polygonal bay with a polygonal roof. The home was built by Frederick W. Vanderbilt for his nephew, Thomas H. Howard.[2]

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1993.[1]
