Located in Ramapough near the site of an Indian trading post, this Dutch Colonial house was built about 1750 by Jacobus Laroe. The small wing was added later, and the porch about 1840. Later owners included Jacobus Bogert, who had a tavern here; John Haring, a member of the Continental Congress; the Hopper family; and Abraham Van Horn, a Bergen County Freeholder and New Jersey Assemblyman.
