The Isaac Pearson house is a large, unusually fine, 2-story, 5-bay, double-pile, brick house, with a center-hall plan, built in 1773 in a vernacular interpretation of the Georgian style and in the southern New Jersey patterned brickwork tradition. The date "1 7 7 3" is worked into the west gable, in vitrified headers. The foundation of the house is composed of fieldstone, and a cellar extends under the entire house. Both the south and west elevations have been stuccoed. The north facade is painted, but not stuccoed. The east elevation exhibits rough brick masonry. The house has a gable roof with a ridge that parallels the fa9ade. Two interior end chimneys, one on the east and the other on the west, pierce this ridge and maintain the Georgian symmetry. The roof had originally been of wood shingle, and was reshingled in wood several years ago. Most of the original 1773 interior wood and plasterwork remains intact. Some interior changes of a minor nature were made during the Federal period, and somewhat more extensive but still minor changes were made during the early Victorian era.
