Joseph Purdy Homestead is a historic home located in Purdy's, Westchester County, New York. It was built in 1776 and consists of an L-shaped, 2+12-story main block attached to which are several one-story wings. The main block measures six bays wide. It features a five-bay, one-story porch along the front elevation added about 1870.[2]
