It also recounts the site's later development by Peter Van Orden, who ran a store, mill and distillery nearby.","narrative":"Located on Allhusen Road in the northwest corner of Plattekill, this stone and brick house with a gambrel roof was built about 1773, around the time Johannis Shuart bought the property. It has a symmetrical five-bay front with a central Dutch door, end-wall chimneys, and a center hall that keeps its original wainscoting, chair rail and staircase. Inside, beams are planed and beaded in the Dutch manner, and brick fireplaces and a cellar kitchen hearth with a bake oven survive. The house is a mid- and upper-Hudson Valley type linked to the 1760s and 1770s. Peter Van Orden bought the property in 1799 and developed a storehouse, dam and mill beside it, near a distillery, in a small commercial settlement. The farm stayed in Van Orden hands until 1886. A rehabilitation from 1980 to 1984 rebuilt the failing end walls and added a west wing made from a moved stone building. The dwelling remains a private home, with a contributing stone granary on the grounds.","period_of_significance":"ca.1773 - 1800","architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"OTHER/vernacular","criteria":["C"],"status_note":"Used as a single-family dwelling.
