The Andrews-Bartlett Homestead is located in the village of Tuckerton Seaport on Main Street in Tuckerton in Ocean County, New Jersey near the Baymen's Museum.[1][2]
The original section of the house was built c. 1699 and is believed to be the oldest home in Ocean County, New Jersey.[3] Mordecae Andrews built the original two-room home in 1699. Nathan Bartlett bought the house in 1824 and enlarged the entire structure, encompassing the original portion in the center and actually completely surrounding it.[4][5]
Partial funding for restoration of the building was in place as of 2017.[6][7] Some repairs were made in 2019.[8]
