Decker-Kincaid Homestead, Boonton Township, NJ



The Decker-Kincaid homestead was built in 1785 with an additional wing in place by 1837. The house features spoon-worked plaster walls and an enigmatic folk art face wall painting. Land preservationist Oscar Kinkaid lived on the property and the Kincaid family operated the farmstand from the 1920s through 2000.
