Located along US 209 in the hamlet of Stone Ridge, New York, the Cornelius Wynkoop Stone House is a Georgian-style residence built between 1767 and 1772 for Cornelius Evert Wynkoop. The stone dwelling presents an unusual architectural hybrid, combining a Georgian plan with a gambrel roof—a rare fusion of British and Dutch influences found on only one other stone house in the Hudson Valley. The house serves as a contributing property to the Main Street Historic District and was individually listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1996. The residence also holds historical note as a place where George Washington spent a night during his travels.
