Allen-Beville House, Italianate farmhouse in Douglaston, United States.
The Allen-Beville House stands at 29 Center Drive with its characteristic Italianate architectural elements, including decorative brackets on cornices and porches.
Benjamin Allen constructed this residence between 1848 and 1850 on a 16-acre property he acquired from his relatives in the Flushing Township area.
The house functioned as an educational center in 1865 when Benjamin Allen established a school within its walls for local children.
Located at coordinates 40.772778, -73.750833, the property received protection through the National Register of Historic Places designation in 1983.
After a fire destroyed the original Douglaston Club in 1917, architects used this house's design as a reference for reconstructing the new building.
