    The Van Nuyse farmhouse is a gambrel-roofed Dutch Colonial dwelling with overhanging sides

    The Landmarks Preservation Commission described the house as a sturdy, rectangular, shingle-covered dwelling of two and a half stories. Its gambrel roof sweeps outward in curves, and on the two long sides the roof juts past the walls in cantilevered overhangs. The report judged that, apart from the central north dormer and the two front columns, it probably looks much as Van Nuyse built it.
