The J. Dupuy Stone House is located on Krum Road near Kerhonkson, New York, United States, in the Ulster County town of Rochester. It was built in the mid-19th century and modified later. On the property are several other outbuildings, including a stand-alone smokehouse. They and the house were listed on National Register of Historic Places in 1997.〔 ==Buildings and grounds== The lot with the house and outbuildings is located on the south side of Krum Road half a mile east of its eastern end at Queens Highway. The house is surrounded by mature spruce and maple trees, the only such growth in a large area of open fields. The terrain is generally level, providing views of the Catskill foothills to the west and the Shawangunk Ridge to the east.〔 The house itself is a five-bay one-and-a-half-story stone building with clapboard siding on the upper half-story. It is topped with a standing-seam metal gabled roof pierced by brick chimneys at either end. On the south (rear) side is a two-bay, two-story clapboard-sided wing added later.〔 Fenestration is regular. All first-story windows are modern vinyl replacements for the originals. Those on the first story have louvered wooden shutters. Those on the upper story of the north (front) facade skip bays. A small wooden deck is located in front of the main entrance, running almost the width of the house.〔 A stone walk leads from the front door to the road; at the latter's former route there are two stone posts and a six-foot (2 m) square bluestone mounting block, a contributing object to the National Register listing. On the east of the driveway there is a rectangular one-story frame clapboard-sided shed with corrugated metal gable roof and a one-story shed-roofed addition. It has a wooden sliding door on thewest and a board-and-batten strap-hinged door on the east. Behind it and the house, to the southeast, is the smokehouse, a single-story front-gabled rubblestone building with a plank front door.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「J.
