History and architectural features[edit]

The main house, which was built circa 1812, is a two-and-one-half-story, four-bay, stone dwelling, with a two-bay addition that was built circa 1815. It was restored between 1974 and 1975. The property also includes the brick Fahnestock farmstead (1812), a small stone butcher/smoke house, a stone and log milkhouse, and a large frame barn with distinctive cupolas that was built in 1896.
