With lush rolling hills, long-stretching meadows, & the beautiful Kinderhook Creek running through it all, this heavenly slice of rural idyll quickly became home to grist mills, thriving trade businesses, & large farms. The largest section of the house, as it stands today, was likely built onto the original home at the turn of the 19th century by the Rider family, with the scalloped trim & other decorative millwork added towards the end of the 1800s. The entire property marks key architectural innovations & tendencies across hundreds of years - both the barn & the farmhouse sit on beautiful, thick fieldstone foundations, with exterior elements dating from the 1700s to the early 1900s, & stone foundation ruins on the grounds remain from the original covered bridge that once connected the north & south sides of the Kinderhook Creek.
