Haring-Eberle House
Also known as: Ic-3
Why it's listed
Set on a small rise on a wooded 2.36-acre lot beside Route 9W in Palisades, this clapboard house grew in stages. Local tradition holds that it began as a one-room structure in the late eighteenth century, received a dining room addition in the early nineteenth century, and gained its large northern section, with stairhall and parlor, between 1865 and 1870 after J.W. Haring bought the property in 1859. The L-shaped house has a cross-gabled front, a bracketed porch, a bay window with scroll-saw trim and drip moldings over some windows, all in a vernacular Gothic Revival manner. Inside, the detailing is Italianate, including a marble fireplace and plaster ceiling medallion. Beneath the picturesque styling, the plan still follows the common two-story, side-passage house type of the lower Hudson Valley. A two-story gabled barn from the third quarter of the nineteenth century survives to the northwest. Together they illustrate local building traditions and changing fashion in the community.
Significance in brief: The property is presented as a distinctive, intact example of a late-nineteenth-century residence combining a regional Anglo-American side-passage house type with Gothic Revival exterior detailing. It shows how local builders applied picturesque styling to a traditional plan as Palisades changed from a farming district into a suburban retreat. The surviving outbuilding adds to the understanding of residential groupings in the area.

What listing means for this property
National Register listing is honorary for a privately owned home: it does not by itself restrict what an owner may do with their own money, and it does not require public access. Restrictions come from local landmark or historic-district ordinances, which are separate (how they differ).
Owner-occupied houses are not eligible for the 20% federal rehabilitation tax credit, which applies to income-producing buildings, but many states offer credits for homeowners. Listing also opens the door to preservation easements and to buying a plaque. Start with what listing means for homeowners, renovating a listed house and selling one.
General information, not legal or tax advice. Rules change; confirm with your State Historic Preservation Office or a qualified adviser.
