Bykenhulle House

The Bykenhulle House Bed and Breakfast (Originally called Ivy Hall) is a 15 room Greek Revival style manor house. It was built in the early 19th century in the town of East Fishkill by Peter Adriance, a prominent silversmith. Peter was the grandson of Isaac Adriance, who emigrated from Holland and purchased the first Adriance land grant in Dutchess County from Madam Brett in 1743. John Bicknell was the Vice President, and later the Chairman of the Board of the United States Rubber Company. Around the time he acquired ownership of the estate, rural electricity was being made available in the area. Bicknell renovated the house with electricity, and restored the property with up-to-date modifications of the time. He renamed the property “Bykenhulle” which is the original spelling for Bicknell. The Anglo Saxon name “Bykenhulle” dates back to 1004 meaning “Beacon Hill.” Beacon Hill guarded the manor of Bykenhulle in Somersetshire, England in the 11th century. Though Beacon Hill would be a lot easier to pronounce today, the owners have kept with Bykenhulle to preserve the history! In 1972, William and Florence Beausoleil purchased the Bykenhulle House, with the horse barn, a poultry house, a carriage house and six acres of property. The Beausoleils’ moved from Poughkeepsie taking up residence in Bykenhulle with their six children. William Beausoleil was an IBM Fellow and prolific technology inventor while Florence concentrated on family life and developing the beautiful formal gardens on the property. In 1991, Bykenhulle celebrated its 150-year anniversary and was listed in the National Register of Historic Places. During this time, the House formally opened as Bykenhulle House Bed and Breakfast. Bill and Florence added a beautiful sunroom, ballroom and patios to entertain guests. These graceful additions now serve as an elegant venue for weddings, showers, birthday parties and special events. In 2016, the Bykenhulle House celebrated 175 years in Dutc
