Fredenburg House is a historic home located at Rhinebeck, Dutchess County, New York, located about one and one-half miles south of the village and west of Route 9.
History
The area was originally owned by Nicholas Emigh; it was called "Bocke Bush" or Beech Woods. Emigh eventually settled in the town of Beekman, where larger farms were available.[2] The house later came into the possession of the Fredenburg family, before being purchased by the Livingstons.
House
It was built about 1716 and is a 1+1⁄2-story, rectangular, gable-roofed farmhouse built into a slight hillside. It is an example of 18th-century regional vernacular German architecture. The garret level contained a domed section of the chimney that served as a meat smoking chamber.[2] It was acquired as a dependency for Grasmere, as did the Benner House and Steenburg Tavern, by the mid-19th century.[3]
It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1987.[1]
