It shows the regional practice of expanding a one-room house into a multi-room linear house. Its link to the Wynkoop family ties the house type to the area's Dutch cultural heritage.","narrative":"Near Saugerties in Ulster County, this one-and-one-half story stone house sits beside the old Kings Highway, now Route 32. It was built in two stages. The northern, one-room section is dated to about 1740 by a date stone and has limited, asymmetrical openings. A later two-room, center-hall addition, from the third quarter of the eighteenth century, gives the house its balanced five-bay front. Walls are rubble-filled local limestone and bluestone, and bluestone lintels over the east openings carry initials, Masonic emblems and dates from the 1790s. Inside, exposed beams, raised panelling, crown moldings and original doors and hardware survive. The house is significant as a clear example of the Ulster County stone house type and of the common practice of growing from a single room into a three-room linear plan. Its Georgian touches sit alongside an old-fashioned form, and its association with the Wynkoop family connects it to the region's Dutch heritage.","period_of_significance":"1700-1799","architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Eighteenth-century Ulster County vernacular stone house with Georgian influence in the later addition","criteria":["C"],"status_note":"Condition is listed as excellent and the house is occupied as a private residence.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:50:43.564347-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/lz/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_NY/84003237.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/84003237/e8c4736994-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/84003237/e8c4736994-1600.webp","licence":"CC BY-SA 3.0","author":"Daniel Case","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Wynkoop_House,_Saugerties,_NY.jpg\" rel=\"noopener\">Daniel Case</a>, <a href=\"http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/\" rel=\"license noopener\">CC BY-SA 3.0</a>, via Wikimedia Commons","source_page":"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Wynkoop_House,_Saugerties,_NY.jpg"},"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/75322763","wikipedia":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wynkoop_House","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q8040164"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/new-york/ulster-county/wynkoop-house-84003237/"}
