Ferguson Farm Complex is a historic home and farm complex located at Duanesburg in Schenectady County, in the U.S. state of New York. The house was built about 1848 and is a 2-story, three-bay clapboard-sided frame building in a vernacular Greek Revival style. It has a 2-story, three-bay wing and a 1½-story, two-bay wing. It features a gable roof with cornice returns, a wide frieze, and corner pilasters. Also on the property are two contributing barns (a hay barn and a dairy barn), a garage, shed, and silo.[2]

The property was covered in a 1984 study of Duanesburg historical resources.[3] It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1987.[1]
