It also retains a highly intact c. 1875 interior plan and finishes, along with a rural setting and historic outbuildings. It is nominated at the local level under Criterion C in architecture.","narrative":"Pine View Farm in the Little Britain area of New Windsor, Orange County, contains a two-story house begun around 1875 and extended in 1915. The front block has load-bearing walls of 16-inch poured lime-based concrete scored to resemble stone, a method the nomination describes as rare in the region. The 1915 rear ell, added after the Steidle family bought the property, uses structural terra cotta block and imitates the earlier section's exterior. Its Italianate character shows in restrained detailing such as exposed rafter tails, and the interior survives largely intact, including a center-hall plan, pocket doors, an open-stringer staircase and plaster walls. Heating is still by stoves. The grounds hold a c. 1875 timber-frame carriage barn, a 1915 terra cotta well house, a privy and stone walls. The property was listed for its architecture, as an intact example of mid-nineteenth-century concrete construction and domestic design, within a rural setting protected by conservation easements.","period_of_significance":"c. 1875-c. 1915","architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Late Victorian: Italianate","criteria":["C"],"status_note":"Remains a single-family dwelling heated by stoves; only the kitchen and bathroom have been modernized, and the property has a high level of physical integrity.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:50:48.773755-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/lz/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_NY/12000257.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/12000257/2d112a32be-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/12000257/2d112a32be-1600.webp","licence":"CC BY-SA 4.0","author":"JERRYE &amp; ROY KLOTZ M.D.","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:DENNISTON-STEIDLE_HOUSE,_NEW_WINDSOR,_ORANGE_COUNTY,_NY.jpg\" rel=\"noopener\">JERRYE &amp;amp; ROY KLOTZ M.D.</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:DENNISTON-STEIDLE_HOUSE,_NEW_WINDSOR,_ORANGE_COUNTY,_NY.jpg"},"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/75320622","wikipedia":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denniston%E2%80%93Steidle_House","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q23091495"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/new-york/orange-county/denniston-steidle-house-12000257/"}
