The Demarest–Lyle House is located at 91 W. Clinton Avenue in the borough of Tenafly 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.[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 by a member of the Demarest family in the early 19th century based on architectural evidence. Charles Newcomb made changes to the house during the 1860s. His son-in-law, John S. Lyle, bought the house in 1912.[3]
