| Homestead House is a 2½-story 18th century side gable wood frame structure with a garrison-style second floor overhang. The house is five bays wide and two bays deep, with a brick central chimney, concrete foundation, slate roof and clapboard siding. Thought to have been built circa 1730, the house originally was located where Building # 412 [[l:lederle_graduate|Lederle Graduate Research Tower]] (built 1972) now stands and was moved to its current location after its original site was cleared for the construction of Lederle. | Homestead House is a 2½-story 18th century side gable wood frame structure with a garrison-style second floor overhang.
