Rose Hill, in Fayette, New York, is a "monumental-scale" mansion, built in the form of a 2 story Greek temple with six Ionic columns, that was built in 1837. It has been attributed to architects Minard Lafever and Andrew Jackson Downing, but is most likely to have been built by skilled local craftsmen without either of those architect's involvement. It is built in the style of architect Minard Lafever, and in particular may have drawn on his pattern book "The Beauties of Modern Architecture".

The property was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1986.citation|title=PDFlink| [http://pdfhost.focus.nps.gov/docs/NHLS/Text/73001269.pdf National Register of Historic Places Inventory-Nomination: Rose Hill Mansion] |268 KB|date=undated, perhaps 1983 |author=Carolyn Pitts |publisher=National Park Service and PDFlink| [http://pdfhost.focus.nps.gov/docs/NHLS/Photos/73001269.pdf Accompanying 6 photos, from 1962, c.1975, and c.1980.] |1.25 MB]
