The '''Jay Lewis House''' is a historic house at 12 Fairview Drive in [[McGehee, Arkansas]].

It is the only Stone-designed house in [[Desha County, Arkansas|Desha County]], and one of only five in the state. The exterior of the house is clad in vertical cypress boards, with a porch that wraps completely around the house, and a breezeway connecting to a carport, built at the same time. The porch roof is supported by six [[Douglas fir]] beams. The interior of the house is based on Stone's Modernist reinterpretation of the traditional Arkansas [[dog trot architecture|dog trot]] form, with the central living/dining/kitchen area acting as the central element of that form.

The exterior of the house is clad in vertical cypress boards, with a porch that wraps completely around the house, and a breezeway connecting to a carport, built at the same time. The porch roof is supported by six Douglas fir beams. The interior of the house is based on Stone's Modernist reinterpretation of the traditional Arkansas dog trot form, with the central living/dining/kitchen area acting as the central element of that form.
