Step into a rare piece of Staten Island history with the iconic Peter Houseman House, a designated New York City Landmark dating back to circa 1730. This extraordinary residence is one of the few surviving pre-Revolutionary Dutch colonial farmhouses in New York City, thoughtfully expanded in the 18th century and preserved to reflect its rich architectural heritage. Set on an expansive 10,500 sq ft lot in the heart of Westerleigh, this 1.5-story home blends historic charm with timeless character. Original features such as the stone structure, classic rooflines, and period details offer a glimpse into early American craftsmanship, while later additions showcase the home's evolution over centuries. Beyond its architecture, the property carries a remarkable provenance—once part of the Dongan estate and later owned by prominent Staten Island families, it stands today as a lasting testament to the borough's colonial past. Located in a highly desirable, established neighborhood with convenient access to shopping, dining, and transportation, this home offers a unique opportunity for the discerning buyer seeking more than just a residence—but a legacy. A truly special offering for those who appreciate history, character, and the rarity of owning a landmarked home.
