The Architecture of Stony Point
Colonial Revival · Cape Cod
Primary Styles
1920s–1970s
Built Era
Stony Point’s residential fabric is defined by Colonial Revival and Cape Cod construction — a concentrated stock of homes built primarily between 1920s–1970s. At an average of 1,900 sq ft on lots ranging 0.15–0.75 acres, these properties set a high bar for material quality and construction precision.
Stony Point's residential streets carry the quality of northern Rockland's landscape: larger lots, mature tree cover, and a proximity to the Hudson River that gives the community a distinctly open character compared to the denser suburban fabric further south. Cape Cod and Colonial Revival homes from the postwar era through the 1970s sit on lots where original construction quality has aged well — structural integrity that rewards comprehensive interior renovation, and site conditions specific to Haverstraw Bay proximity that require material knowledge rather than just standard suburban specifications. JMR begins every Stony Point project by understanding both the house and the landscape conditions it occupies.
JMR has completed projects within reach of Stony Point Battlefield State Historic Site, Haverstraw Bay Hudson River waterfront, Minisceongo Creek.
Stony Point is the northernmost community in Rockland County, approximately 35 miles from Midtown Manhattan via the Palisades Interstate Parkway and US Route 9W. Its Hudson River frontage on Haverstraw Bay creates specific waterfront renovation considerations for properties near the shore, while inland residential areas offer larger lots and a quieter suburban context compared to the denser southern towns.
Our Approach in Stony Point
Stony Point's Colonial Revival, Cape Cod, and Ranch homes — many on lots larger than are typical in southern Rockland — represent housing stock at an ideal renovation stage: well-built original construction that has aged soundly and rewards comprehensive interior programs rather than wholesale replacement. Homeowners here are improving homes they have chosen for space and landscape quality, bringing kitchens and baths up to a standard commensurate with the care already evident in the structure. JMR handles Town of Stony Point permit administration as part of standard project onboarding.

What Rockland County Homeowners Say
Excellent craftsmanship and quality. They worked quickly and with great attention to detail. The kitchen is beautiful — exactly what we envisioned. Absolutely recommended.
Mingo Montes
Kitchen Remodeling · October 2025
We had a complex job — load-bearing wall removal, custom island, full mechanical relocation. JMR managed the structural engineer, the cabinet shop, and the stone fabricator without us needing to coordinate anything. Came in on schedule. The kitchen is exactly what we specified.
Robert Chen
Kitchen Remodeling · August 2025
JMR gutted and rebuilt our master bath from the studs. They coordinated the plumber and electrician themselves — we had one contact for the entire project. The result is exactly what we approved in the specification. Clean site every day. No surprises at any stage.

What You Need to Know

As an independent town, Stony Point's Building Department reviews all residential applications directly. JMR prepares complete permit packages at project initiation — including stamped structural drawings for load-bearing wall modifications — and manages all inspection scheduling.

Do I need a DEC permit for deck construction near Haverstraw Bay in Stony Point?
Properties in Stony Point within regulated tidal wetland or coastal setback distances from Haverstraw Bay and the Hudson River shoreline may require a New York State DEC Tidal Wetlands Act permit in addition to a Town of Stony Point building permit. The DEC review runs on its own timeline — typically 60–90 days for a complete application — and must be coordinated with the Town's review to prevent sequential delays. JMR assesses each project's regulatory position at the initial site visit and, where DEC review is required, initiates both applications concurrently.
