Between 1748 and 1889, the Van Cortlandt House was both the home of the prosperous Van Cortlandt family and the center of the family's grain and milling operations. The Georgian-style home features a wide collection of period furniture, including a grand rococo mantelpiece, a 1770s mahogany dressing table and 1820s dining table, and several large portraits of various members of the family. Other antique items in the home include an 18th century dining set, a 1740s dollhouse and numerous cooking utensils. It is located in Van Cortlandt Park, which also contains the Van Cortlandt Park Golf Course, in the Bronx.
