The Robert Sands Estate was a historic home located at Rhinebeck, Dutchess County, New York. The house was built about 1796 and is a ​2 1⁄2-story, brick filled wood frame building, with a gable roof and sheathed in clapboard. It sat on an extant stone foundation and measured five bays wide by four deep. Also on the property were a contributing ​1 1⁄2-story frame cottage and four frame farm outbuildings, including a Dutch barn.[2]

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1987.[1] In 2015 the National Park Service, which oversees the Register, announced that it was considering a request to remove it[3] as a result of a 1999 fire that left only the foundation.[4] It did so in August of that year.[5]>
