6
Built in 1818 by John I. Hopper in old “Polifly,” this Federal style house stands on land purchased in 1694 by his great-grandfather Hendrick. The farm remained in the Hopper family for seven generations. Slaves lived in the kitchen wing on the north and in the south wing, which was added later. The large frame section was completed in 1983. The Hopper farmhouse has been a restaurant since 1937.
