It combines an earlier frame wing with a two-story cobblestone block dating from the mid-to-late 1830s.","why_significant":"The nomination argues the house is a largely intact example of Early Period cobblestone construction in New York State, with field cobbles in horizontal rows, cut stone quoins, sills and lintels. It also has well-crafted Federal interior woodwork. It is one of only two cobblestone buildings in the Town of Conesus and one of twenty-one in Livingston County.","narrative":"Set on a hilly 4.71-acre parcel above the Conesus Lake valley, this farmhouse in Conesus, Livingston County, combines a one-and-one-half-story frame wing with a dominant two-story cobblestone block. Local records place the cobblestone portion in the mid-to-late 1830s, added to an earlier frame building. Its walls use medium-sized field cobbles laid in horizontal rows with lime mortar, and cut stone quoins, sills, lintels and a water table. The main entrance has a Federal six-panel door with sidelights. Inside, interconnecting rooms, reeded door and window surrounds, grained doors and simple Federal mantels reflect practical planning and careful craftsmanship. The finest masonry faces the public north, east and west sides. The property also holds a gambrel-roofed barn from about 1900, a shed and two privies. It was listed because it is a largely intact Early Period cobblestone house and one of only two in the Town of Conesus.","period_of_significance":"ca. 1835 ca. 1950 (Section 8 text also cites ca. 1820 to ca. 1950)","architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Federal","criteria":["C"],"status_note":"Historic and current function is single dwelling; the property includes a non-contributing former school moved to the site and converted to residential use.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:51:54.045732-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/lz/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_NY/06001300.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/06001300/f847a156e3-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/06001300/f847a156e3-1600.webp","licence":"CC BY-SA 4.0","author":"Jerrye &amp; Roy Klotz, MD","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:SLIKER_COBBLESTONE_HOUSE,_CONESUS,_LIVINGSTON_COUNTY.jpg\" rel=\"noopener\">Jerrye &amp;amp; Roy Klotz, MD</a>, <a href=\"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0\" rel=\"license noopener\">CC BY-SA 4.0</a>, via Wikimedia Commons","source_page":"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:SLIKER_COBBLESTONE_HOUSE,_CONESUS,_LIVINGSTON_COUNTY.jpg"},"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/75313355","wikipedia":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sliker_Cobblestone_House","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q7540545"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/new-york/livingston-county/sliker-cobblestone-house-06001300/"}
