It has roughly dressed red sandstone walls, a broad gambrel roof with flared eaves and a center-hall plan, along with Federal-style interior details. Changes made around 1930 are treated as historic. It is described as locally significant.","narrative":"Built of roughly dressed red sandstone, this one-and-one-half-story house in the Nauraushaun area of Pearl River, Rockland County, reflects the Dutch building tradition of the lower Hudson Valley and northern New Jersey. A stone marked J.P. 1801 on the east elevation dates the main construction, though part may have been built around 1793. A broad gambrel roof with flared eaves covers the house, and a symmetrical five-bay facade faces east. Inside, a full-length center hall separates a parlor from the former kitchen and dining room. The parlor has a Federal-style mantel and long tulip wood beams, and the original hewn roof framing survives in the attic. Changes around 1930, including casement windows, French doors and oak flooring, are considered historic. The property also includes a barn, a well-house and a cistern. It was recognized for architecture as a largely intact local example of a Dutch tradition that lingered into the Federal period, with a period of significance of about 1796 to 1930.","period_of_significance":"c. 1796-c. 1930","architect_builder":"Unknown","architectural_style":"Colonial; Dutch Colonial","criteria":["C"],"status_note":"Remains in use as a single-dwelling residence; the interior is substantially intact, with a 1978 frame addition connected by a hyphen.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:51:52.67832-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/lz/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_NY/03000594.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/03000594/b9b19a112c-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/03000594/b9b19a112c-1600.webp","licence":"CC BY-SA 3.0","author":"Daniel Case","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Jacob_P_Perry_House,_Pearl_River,_NY.jpg\" rel=\"noopener\">Daniel Case</a>, <a href=\"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0\" rel=\"license noopener\">CC BY-SA 3.0</a>, via Wikimedia Commons","source_page":"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Jacob_P_Perry_House,_Pearl_River,_NY.jpg"},"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/75321478","wikipedia":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacob_P._Perry_House","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q6119087"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/new-york/rockland-county/perry-jacob-p-house-03000594/"}
