The Beecher-McFadden Estate is a historic estate located on East Main Street in Peekskill, Westchester County, New York.
Description and history
The estate includes an imposing brick mansion and a large support building set among scenic landscaping. The mansion was originally built in about 1875 in a Victorian Gothic style, and was extensively remodeled in the 1920s in the Tudor Revival style. It is a large, 2+1⁄2-story, asymmetrical brick building with stone trim, Tudor arches, and plain balustrades. The north elevation retains the original 1+1⁄2-story, red brick walls with polychrome brick trim. The large support structure has a two-story center section, flanked by 1+1⁄2-story wings, and is in the Jacobean Revival style. The property was originally developed by Rev. Henry Ward Beecher (1813-1887), then purchased by the locally prominent McFadden family in 1902.[2]
It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on November 2, 1987.[1]
