Van Alen House, Dutch Colonial farmhouse in Kinderhook, New York.

The Van Alen House features a 1.5-story brick structure with a steep gabled roof and three chimneys positioned at both ends and between rooms.

Built in 1737 and expanded in 1750, this National Historic Landmark reflects the architectural traditions of Dutch settlers in the Hudson River Valley.

The Columbia County Historical Society maintains the property as a museum that displays furniture, tools, and objects from the colonial Dutch period.

The house opens for guided tours during weekends from June through October, allowing visitors to explore the three ground-floor rooms with separate entrances.

The property includes 33 acres of land with the 1850 Ichabod Crane Schoolhouse and connects to Martin Van Buren's Lindenwald through the Dutch Farming Heritage Trail.
