New York City Individual Landmark

This two-story single- family house was constructed of fieldstone at the same time as Stone Court. The oldest section is a one-story, L-shaped, gabled-roof structure, which was incorporated as part of the retaining wall. An extension was added around 1908, consisting of a one-and-one-half story structure with gambrel-roof on the northwest side. Through the years, additions and modifications have been made to the house, including glass panels to the attic, but it maintains its cohesiveness and signature elements, such as the chimneys topped by curved ventilator caps. It was designated as a NYC Landmark in 1967.
