The "Peters house" photo, taken in 2003. It is the homestead of the settler Hermanus Kuster (or Herman Custer) who arrived soon after 1702. This farmstead is listed on the NATIONAL REGISTER of HISTORIC PLACES. It has an idyllic setting and now consists of the old farmhouse, constructed about 1717, a large barn, and a carriage house. The house has terrific stone work by talented craftsmen. The Kuster's had a fulling mill here also, but it is long gone.
The farmstead is on the National Register for its historical importance, but that does not mean that it is receiving the attention that it deserves. It is critical to have a couple of repairs completed, before both the barn and the carriage-house have advanced damaged. The carriage-house has an opening in the roof, perhaps once again due the lack of repairing the shingles. Walking past the ramp at the upper side of the barn, there is a smaller tree growing close to the stone foundation wall which must have a root that "pushed in" a small area of the wall.
