Nicholas Alleman (1756-1826), a private in James Burd's 4th Battalion, and his son, Christian, built this symmetrical Georgian-style farmhouse circa 1798.  The house is five bays wide and two deep, made out of red brick with a molded brick water table around the entire house. There is a wide embellished cornice that runs across the front of the house.

​

The house was approved for the National Register of Historic Places on September 27, 1974.

​

It is located at 950 Strite Road on Strite's Farm and owned by Tom Strite.
