'''Tibbits House''', also known as Tibbits Hall, is a historic home located at Hoosick in Rensselaer County, New York. The house was built about 1860 and {{frac|1|1|2}}-story, rectangular Gothic Revival–style building. It is constructed of cut ashlar sandstone blocks and has steeply pitched gable roofs covered with fishscale slate. It features projecting porches, bay windows, changes of rooflines, dormers, chimneys, and two towers. The existing house on the property was originally owned by U.S. Congressman George Tibbits (1763–1849); his son George Mortimer Tibbits (1796–1878) built the Tibbits House. At the time the property was bought by the Tibbits it was the location of a wooden house built before the Revolution by a Loyalist named Pfister. The Tibbits estate was a stop on the Underground Railroad. The building was acquired by Hoosac School in 1952 and is used as a dormitory, classrooms, and for administrative offices.<ref name=nrhpdoc>{{cite report|type=none|url=https://catalog.archives.gov/id/75321307 |title=National Register of Historic Places Registration: New York SP Tibbits House|publisher=National Archives and Records Administration |author= Doris Vanderlipp Manley|date= December 1977| access-date=November 22, 2025 }} ({{NationalArchivesNote}})</ref>
