Notes
  • Significance: Constructed in the popular Norman style, the design of this large brick house is attributed to local architect George Veitch. The master mason, John Byrd, executed the highly varied ornamental brickwork using only rectangular and few molded bricks. Originally called Wyndclyffe, the house was used a weekend and summer residence by its first owner, Elizabeth Schermerhorn Jones of New York City. Edith Jones Wharton was a frequent childhood visitor. Wyndclyffe may have influence Miss Wharton in her book Hudson River Bracketed. Wyndclyffe was renamed Linden Grove by Andrew Finck, the second owner, in 1886.
