The Dirck Gulick House is a historic stone house built in 1752 and located at 506 County Route 601 (Belle Mead-Blawenburg Road) in the Dutchtown section of Montgomery Township in Somerset County, New Jersey. The house was added to the National Register of Historic Places on December 11, 2003 for its significance in architecture and exploration/settlement.[3] It is now operated as a historic house museum by the Van Harlingen Historical Society.[4]

History and description

The one and one-half story Dutch colonial house was built from fieldstone in 1752 by Dirck Gulick. He was married to Geertje Reed. A stone plaque on the exterior has their initials and the year built. The house features two separate entry doors and segmented stone arches over the doors and windows. Gulick was a deacon of the Harlingen Dutch Reformed Church. His sons, Hendrick and Guisbert Gulick, lived on the farm after his death.[3] In 2004, it was acquired by the Van Harlingen Historical Society.[4]
