When they stopped paying suddenly, the body of Peter Roff was found shortly after. The Van Rensselaers were sending a message. In 1842, the family suffered financially and ended up selling much of their land. A farmhouse was designed and built by Mrs. Ernie Roff, who was upset with her husband at the time for his unfaithfulness. The land ended up becoming a working farm, which was purchased by James and Dorothy O'Hearn. This is when The Century House came to life. The O'Hearn family earned a great reputation by serving their guests downstairs from where they were living. These areas became the North and Federal dining rooms here at The Century House. Two more dining rooms were built since then, as well as two large ballrooms and finally the Hotel. Currently, guests enjoy the top notch facilities while still experiencing the great history. Come visit us at the Century House and become a part of our story!
