The Debaun–Demarest House, also known as the Christie–Cooper House, is located at 56 Spring Valley Road in the borough of River Edge in Bergen County, New Jersey, United States. The historic stone house was added to the National Register of Historic Places on January 10, 1983, for its significance in architecture and exploration/settlement.[1][3] It was listed as part of the Early Stone Houses of Bergen County Multiple Property Submission (MPS).[4]

According to the nomination form, the house was built from around 1780 to 1830 based on architectural evidence. Jacob Debaun and Maria Cooper were married in 1783 and likely lived here. Their daughter Catherine married David D. Demarest in 1806. Their son John G. Demarest sold the house to the Christie family in 1838. David W. Christie owned it in 1839. After his death, it was a hotel and tavern, the River Edge Hotel, for a short time.[3]
