It sits at the historic center of the hamlet, diagonally opposite the 1786 county courthouse. Its Greek Revival renovations, probably made after the 1854 sale to Peter Best, survive through most of the house, and the kitchen wing keeps its eighteenth-century hearth and oven.","narrative":"This large frame house stands at the corner of Route 23B and Stone Mill Road in the hamlet of Claverack, once the Post Road between Albany and New York City. Built around 1784, though the nomination suggests it may be later than 1786, it has two stories, a center hall, five bays and a story-and-a-half kitchen wing. Its Georgian proportions were overlaid with Greek Revival details around 1850, including a columned portico, a deep cornice, Doric mantels and a Regency-style lattice porch. The kitchen wing still has a working cooking hearth with a crane and a brick oven. The house is tied to Stephen Hogeboom, a county supervisor, assemblyman and state senator whose daughters married Revolutionary-era figures. It was sold in 1854 to Peter Best, whose family lived there for the rest of the century. The house is valued as a regional example of late Georgian-inspired architecture with well-preserved Greek Revival changes.","period_of_significance":"ca.1784, ca.1850","architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Colonial/Georgian","criteria":["C"],"status_note":"Still used as a single-family dwelling; the form lists both historic and current function as domestic.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:51:51.047151-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/lz/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_NY/97000944.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/97000944/3664d43954-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/97000944/3664d43954-1600.webp","licence":"CC BY-SA 3.0","author":"Daniel Case","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Stephen_Hogeboom_House,_Claverack,_NY.jpg\" rel=\"noopener\">Daniel Case</a>, <a href=\"https://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:Stephen_Hogeboom_House,_Claverack,_NY.jpg"},"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/75312391","wikipedia":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stephen_Hogeboom_House","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q7609508"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/new-york/columbia-county/hogeboom-stephen-house-97000944/"}
