Construction and Physical Properties
editThe home was built in 1815 by James D. LeRay for his son, Vincent.[3] The home is a 2+1⁄2-story, five-by-four-bay stone building. Also on the property is a limestone boathouse, a 2-story stucco cottage, and board and batten garage.
Historical significance
editVincent left the house vacant when he moved into his father's mansion in LeRaysville. In 1873, Vincent sold the house to the Peugnet family.[3] The home remained in their possession until the 20th century.[3] The home was later listed on the National Register of Historic Places on November 15, 1973.[1]
