The House at 364 Cedar Avenue was a historic farmhouse at 364 Cedar Avenue in Long Branch, New Jersey.[3] It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on November 1, 1979. The house was demolished c. 2009.[4]

History

The house was built on what was once a large farm covering over 100 acres, named the West Farm after John West. On April 4, 1862, Frederick Behr purchased a small plot of this farm and may have built the house around that time.[3] Behr was a German immigrant and raised flowers.[5] After his death in 1902, the property was divided among his daughters. One part later became the carriage house and stables for the Murry Guggenheim House.[3]
